Re: [Elecraft] Mobile mounting for K2 and/or K3

2010-06-13 Thread Byron KI6NUL

Have you considered a RAM mount replacement center console for you F250?  You
should check the dimensions carefully, but at first glance I would say a K2
would fit nicely, along with other radios, and have a nice clean appearance.

That approach wouldn't be cheap, but it would look sweet.

[Elecraft] Mobile mounting for K2 and/or K3

2010-06-12 Thread John Lawrence

I'm looking for any ideas for a source to mount the K2 or K3 in the Ford F250 
PU in the middle on the transmission hump. 

Ideally, a non-intrusive (to the radio housing) bracket arrangement to hold the 
radio so it can sit behind the shift up against the front seat at a slight 
angle. Without making custom brackets, is there anything out in the market that 
would work? 

I could mount the radio horizontally on to a laptop pedestal but they take up 
more room and are expensive. 

Thanks for sharing ideas

73,

John, W1QS

John,

Try velcro - it works for a lot of tough mounting situations.
Velcro strap - the kind that sticks the two sides togetheer might be 
handy too.
