[Elecraft] K3/0-Mini

I took a 1.5 x 1.5 x 4" scrap piece of structural foam and cut a small 
vee longitudinally in it for the bail to rest in. I found that height 
was just about right, just below the center of gravity, for it not to 
easily tip over on it's face.

Works great!

This makes it hard to adjust settings, and also provides a challenge in reading the display.  I prop it up on my station table with a jerry-built solution but would love something more stable.  In 2014 these issues were raised by DH8BQA but I was unable to find any suggestions of remedies.  Has anyone come up with a solution for this?  I wish I had my K3/0 back, but I sold it and it’s gone.
