OK, assuming Eric will allow this (he seems to be pretty liberal as a 
reflector moderator), here's several questions. Please reply *directly 
to me*, not on the reflector!!:

1.  Do you think of yourself as right or left-handed?

2.  Do/did you have any problem with the toroid winding instructions in 
your Elecraft manual?  (Mychael: your answer doesn't count!  We know you 
can do this perfectly with either hand!)

3.  With which hand do you normally write?

4.  With which hand do you normally use a knife?

5.  With which hand do you normally throw a ball or bat a baseball or a 
golf ball?

6.  Did you find a problem winding the K2 toroid inductors?

I'll collect the results and provide them on the reflector.  I've had a 
number of rigs and some were more accommodating to us lefties than 
others.  My K2 is at the top of the "Really cool" list so far .. a few 
changes would be good for the 10% of us, but then, most Elecraft 
customers are right handed.

Best Regards to all,
