KX3 PX3 desktop stand

Any recommendation for a desktop stand for a KX3 and PX3 that would keep
both at proper angle and manage the wires?

Here is one I built using generally available parts.

It’s buried but obvious in this blog post of mine.

GiRls,
You might also consider a power-splutter cable from ProAudio Engineering.

Nice install.
I took the GEM mounts and plywood one more step. I used a ~12" round
3/4" plywood disk and mounted three RAM mounts;
https://www.rammount.com/ . KX3, PX3 and Plastic "box". The box can
hold audio ADC and CAT control or for picnic table OP's, and antenna. I
am able to adjust KX3/PX3 angle and position for best OP...

This PSU IS quiet when supplying the 150mA or so needed on receive, but
pretty noisy with the much larger currents needed for transmit. That
means it's fine if it only powers a KX3 and you're not trying to listen
on another radio at the same time.
