[Elecraft] Greetings!

[Stephen W. Kercel]

Ron:

Like you, I am taking a bit of time getting ready before I build a rig. 
Preparation, including creating the workspace, collecting the tools and so 
on, is no small task.

Personally, I have never considered "hiring done" the construction of an 
Elecraft rig. It looks to me like the greater half of the experience of 
operating comes from building it with one's own hands.

73,
