Description
I made this little desktop base for my MMDVM hotspot, mainly because I use it for DMR and the thing sits on a tiny rack above my monitor — and I actually want to see the screen instead of guessing whether I just keyed up my local repeater or a talkgroup on another continent.
The hotspot drops into the stand cleanly, stays put, and keeps every port fully open, including enough room for a 90° USB cable, so nothing touches the desk or crushes itself into weird angles. Everything plugs in without fighting gravity, furniture, or RF spirits.
And yes — the antenna sits slightly differently than textbook-perfect “holy-polarization” alignment. For anyone preparing to file a complaint with the RF gods:
It’s a hotspot. It will survive.
If the sight of a tilted antenna drains your signal reports by emotional dB, you can screw on an SMA 90° adapter and restore universal balance. This stand won’t stop you.
Quick print, (almost) zero drama. A tiny, practical base that holds the hotspot steady, keeps the display readable, leaves every port accessible, and doesn’t pretend to be an engineering thesis.
