[Elecraft] SKN

[n3drk]

Of course John. Do you expect any better than the man who tries to
rewrite ham radio history and tradition! Since its inception SKN
was for using Straight Keys. A bug is NOT a straight key. But some
primadonas who crave control and like telling others how it is to be
done insist having their way. And if persons like us do not answer these
posts the truth will never get out for the newer licenses.
