[Elecraft] Don't Shoot Me for this Observation

[Andrew Moore]

> 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.

But the great thing is that because it's so modular / a-la-carte you can
start with the basics and grow the system.  I'd love to order a K2/100 right
now with all the goodies, but when I really think about it, I see that I can
get away with a basic K2 (15-20 W) and noise blanker for alot less.  The
goodies are nice to have but honestly I'll be so happy with a basic K2 that
I'll enjoy running it "stripped down" until I can get the rest of the
pieces.  I'll be having so much fun I probably won't even notice!  It's just
the difference between "need" and "want."  I often find that I want more
than I really need.

That said, I still really *want* my K2.
