[Elecraft] Don't Shoot Me for this Observation

[Lee Buller]

This K2 thing is getting quite hard to justify to the YL.  I think I might have to sign up for K2A - K2 Anonomous.  "Hi, I'm Lee and I own a K2..."

With all the new fangled stuff introduced, the cost of a K2\100, with tuner, with DSP, with SSB, with 160, with the noise blanker is $1,575.

Now you start looking at the fact you can purchace some rigs today new for AES for less than that it makes one pause....  Such as the IC746PRO.

Of course you have to subtract $250 for the fun of building the rig, another $250 for the fun of winding toroids, another $250 for great customer service, another $250 for the fun of operating the rig, and another $250 dollars for all you learned in the process of building it, it doesn't seem to be a bad deal.  The rig sells for $325.  What a deal!

Now, do you think that the YL will follow all that great logic?

"Honey, it's a great bargain...because....." Elecraft is truely becoming a player in the HR equipment field. Lee - K0WASN 1056
