Great idea, I can see it working without doing it. Should also work nicely on the KX3.
About the KX3's panel: are its screws self-contained, or are there loose nuts behind the cover? I don't want to do something stupid. 73, Arno K7RNO ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2013 10:47:38 -0400 From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii This is such a simple and quick mod I have resisted posting it, but I do feel it makes a small, not totally aesthetic difference. As an amateur astronomer, I always blacken the edges of eyepieces and objective lenses to enhance contrast. I did the same thing on the K2 bezel and I believe it does enhances contrast (at least during the day with high ambient light levels) and improves the appearance of the bezel by eliminating the hazy edge around the clear plastic. Just take a magic marker and carefully run it along the edge of the bezel (after removing it from the radio). Let each length and width dry before continuing to the next portion. It's literally a 5 minute job.
