“Robert K5TD makes me wish I had a KX3. His own design of a 3D printed rack beautifully shows off the radio and panadapter and, from observation, increases the ergonomics of operating them both together, especially with all the cabling required for digital modes.
For others who have 3D printers and are happy with its results, Robert offers the .stl file of his design free of charge. For the rest of you, who might have a KX3/PX3 combo in need of a more logical layout, the rack can be yours for $65.”
