[Elecraft] KX3 Speaker Screw size
I am working on installing my KX3 in my truck and I am curious what size screw is used between the case and speaker mount. We are examining ways to physically mount the KX3 into my silverado. The mount we are likely using is a Panavice.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Speaker Screw size
Keith, the screws that are used to secure to speaker to the case are 2-56 1/4. However, they screw (self-thread) into the relatively soft plastic speaker frame so they cannot handle any significant mechanical force beyond holding the speaker in place. 73, Ron AC7AC -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Keith Heimbold Sent: Saturday, September 01, 2012 11:20 AM To: Elecraft Group Subject: [Elecraft] KX3 Speaker Screw size I am working on installing my KX3 in my truck and I am curious what size screw is used between the case and speaker mount.

Re: [Elecraft] KX3 Speaker Screw size
Thanks Ron for the advice. We found a suitable way to mount the rig. My guess is that we will need to revisit this down the road. We are about 35% complete with the install. When it is done I will post some pictures of it on my qrz and add it to my blog.
