And on the top of your racks? I'm sure there's space for it somewhere. You told you neded to keep it on the top to see the screen, does your contrast control works?(Because on my K5, you can see it from 10 to 170 deg just by playing with contrast). Are you forgetting to put some m s or you have a k5+ K5m?
