[Elecraft] K3 Accessory Connector

[d.cutter at ntlworld.com]

Somebody mentioned the reliability of military connectors.  One well-known military connector (Pattern 105 series) used in millions has a 500 insertions limit. Reliability is calculated from a change of resistance beyond a given limit at a given current, ambient temperature, etc.  Most applications are designed not to go near the limit, so, 'reliability' as a statistical tool is limited.  WE might consider an unreliable connector in a different way.
