Scott. What I did with all my radios and assys at desk level was to cut a
piece of pine 1"x2" and painted it to match desk or shelve and prop front
end on it. Works great and other hams have to look twice to see. I have used
a 2"x2" same way. It looks like it's part of the desk and/or the hutch
shelves above. But does do a great job. Cheap but ok. 73, W4IV Roger in n.

Subject: [TenTec] Omni V upgrade --and WTB front pop up stand (bail)
Thank you all for the replies...some very good ideas. I think the option
of engraving may offer the best results if the local shop can work that
small. A bit of white paint rubbed in and we're off...I hope. The radio
is mint so I am not inclined to make any changes that would take away
from its appearance as silly as it may sound.
The new keyboard idea had me going for a bit but it appears a
non-starter. Oh well...my big quest now is to try and find a front stand
for the old Omni A I have...anyone have a bail and front two feet they
are willing to part with? TT is out of them (for good? who knows?)...
