[Elecraft] Screws to fasten the tilt stand at the K1 / metric system

[Spricke@aol.com]

Hello All.
Thanks for the feed-backs to either the reflector or to my personal address.
I highly appreciate it.

1. Screws to fasten a tilt stand:
       I was told, it is a type 4-40 (40 is the amount of windings per inch).
       Thanks. Now I've a point to start the seek with.

2. My remark to the Inch/Metric system:
       Thanks for all the feed-backs. I learned a lot. Basically it seems to 
me 
       that is not a question of 'why to convert to metric',  but 'when the 
hell do 
       we convert to that much easier system' .

       I have to confess, any such change isn't easy. We Germans just 
       moved from our beloved Deutsche Mark to Euro and I can tell you,
       I havn't yet developed a feeling whether a given Euro-price is cheap or
       not. I recalculate to DM (I've to multiply by 2) ... 
       There the Italians might have to do a more difficult calculation...  
:-)))

Best regards,
