[Elecraft] BL1 Stupid Question

[Kevin Rock]

A corollary to what Ron has stated is: Everything is simple once you have 
learned how it is done.

Our society seems to denigrate those who seek knowledge.  If we never ask 
questions, never make mistakes, none of us would learn anything.  
Therefore, ask your questions be they simple or complex.  You are to be 
admired for your perseverance toward your goal.
