[Elecraft] height of k4 with legs extended

[kevinr]

Hello Richard,

    I found the monitors on my desk took up too much space.  So I found 
a couple swing arm, wall mounted devices to hold them.  Now I can move 
them out of the way to access the computer and move them up and down 
during the day to change my neck angle.  Bifocals insist on certain 
angles and certain heights.  These mounts let me move the displays back 
and forth by about a foot and up and down by the same amount.  You can 
rotate them if you like but I've never found a use for that.  Some folks 
do like portrait as compared to landscape layouts but not me.

    Good luck,

       Kevin.  KD5ONS
