The Elecraft reflector is useful for folks who have questions or are 
looking for help.

The kits are straightforward to construct, and there is plenty of help 
available via the reflector, as well as directly from Elecraft, so 
ensure your success.

Thousands of Elecraft radios are on the air, and all of them are kits.

You might consider downloading a manual from the Elecraft website and 
looking it over.  It will give you a good idea of the ease (or 
difficulty) you might expect if you decide to  build one.

Personally, my first radio was a kit (Heathkit, 40 years ago) and there 
was a certain thrill to being able to say the the radio I was using was 
one I had constructed.  I was 14 at the time.
