[Elecraft] Potential Elecraft Kit

If Elecraft is going to get into making kits for more sophisticated test 
equipment, I'd like to see an antenna analyzer. The MFJ ones are 
ridiculously overpriced over here, and it's not practical to bypass 
rip-off UK dealers and buy direct because MFJ levy a deliberately 
inflated international shipping charge. Besides, I'm sure an Elecraft 
product would be higher quality.

I built one of these simple spectrum analysers, and it works well within

design spec, however I find that I don't use it. This is because of the Wide
Resolution Bandwidth, it is OK for harmonics and widely spaced spurious, 
but for
in-close (<50kHz) measurements it does not cope.

With DDS and support chips now available at reasonable prices it should be
possible to produce a performance spectrum analyser (including good IF
filtering) at a modest cost. How about it Elecraft ?
