Fred,

I think the usefulness of the meter far outweighs  any movement  problems. 
You could clamp the coax a  few inches behind the meter  to the desk or 
shelf, or even  home brew a bracket or clamp to hold it  if you really want 
to.

I just put some slight bends in the coax.  Nothing drastic, just enough to 
put a set in the coax so that it wants to force the meter down flat and 
there it stays.

BTW the TW-1 also covers 6 meters.
