K1 PORTABLE OPS STATION

K1 PORTABLE OPS STATION
 
|
A few years ago i came across a portable OPS set-up for the K1 WHICH CONSISTED BASICALLLY of a metal tool box or maybe a fishing tackle box. The box contained the K1 radio plus all accessories for the station. There were two strap hinges attached to the op of the metal tool/tackle box. These fold down flat when not in use. The hinges are folded up 90 degrees to the top of the box and the K1 is attached with thumb screws much like with the KTS1 TITLT STAND, When finished operating the thumbscrews are rremoved and the station equipment neatly packed away and the hinge supports ares are folded down flush for storage. For the life of me I cannot locate the website article. DOESanyone recall the article I am referring to? I am in the process of borrowing the concept but ustilizing an AMMO BOX.. The Hinges are located on the backside of the lid. and the K1 is installed upside down. attached to the hinges. Open the lid and the K1 is ready to go attached to the hinges. In the bottom of the the AMMO can i is stored the station accessories. The AMMO CAN and the battery are heavy enough to support a fishing-pole mast for the antenna.. I would like to give credit to the author of the original article for the idea. Does anyone know the source?

The original source may not be available anymore. A Google search for "Elecraft K1 toolbox" comes up with this reference, but the link contained in it is no longer valid. http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Cool-Alternative-stand-carrier-for-K1-with-case-td393650.html W0VLZ is the ham he gives credit for the idea. 73, Dave AB7E On 5/3/2018 6:54 AM, Alan KB7MBI via Elecraft wrote: > A few years ago i came across a portable OPS set-up for the K1 WHICH CONSISTED BASICALLLY of a metal tool box or maybe a fishing tackle box.
