[Elecraft] Sad day for amateur radio - END of thread

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

In the interest of keeping list traffic under control and in not drowning out
our regular traffic, let's let this thread rest for now. If everyone posts their
opinion on it well have well over 2000 emails.

I'm sure it will have a very spirited discussion on hundreds of other forums ;-)
