Summary

Version 2.0 uses less plastic.

The fragile fold-out stand on the back of the Tecsun PL-880 radio is prone to breakage, and it's 25-degree tilt angle wasn't enough for the antenna to stick directly upwards (which limited how close I could place the radio against the wall with the antenna extended). I didn't like the viewing angle in any case.

So, here is a customizable tilt stand for said radio (default angle 55-degrees), or perhaps for other devices such as a tablet. Default width of 154mm was selected to fit between the rubber feet of the Tecsun PL-880. Tilt angle is not adjustable after printing, but I didn't need it to be.
