[Elecraft] Wrist Strap

[Don Wilhelm]

Gang,

I was in a CompUSA store this week and picked up an Anti-Static Wrist Band -
Belkin F8E093 for $6.99.  It has a velcro closure and an alligator clip on
the end of the coiled wire.  The coiled wire will stretch to about 6 feet
and has a coiled length of about 2 feet - enough to give reasonable movement
and still keep itself out of my way when working.

All disclaimers apply - I have no association with either CompUSA nor
Belkin.

While I have had no problems in the past using the normal cautionary
measures of working on dampened newspaper and being certain to gorund my
hand before picking up static sensitive parts, I now can work with a higher
confidence level with my anti-static pad and wrist strap.

73,
