[Elecraft] KX2 Handie Talkie cw operation

[Scott McDonald]

Been having some great fun hiking around with the MFJ 20 meter monoband whip working cw out in western Colorado this week.

I'm surprised that I was able to make several solid contacts in NAQP and CWOPS this way, but wondering if anyone has found a way to make the attached paddle any easier to use when walking around, maybe by mounting it to some kind of a handle separate from the radio? I can operate walking with the paddle attached to the radio, but its a bit awkward, and my hiking buddies find it a little too amusing to watch for my taste.....
