[Elecraft] A simple request

[Jack Brindle]

Jim;

While interesting, this is probably not a very good idea since we  
still do quite a bit of our support through this forum. You see, there  
are quite a few of us Elecraft types who monitor the list, answering  
questions or solving problems as they come up. There are now quite a  
few products to support, and this is still the best forum to handle  
that task. So while a knowledgeable (but growing) few are able to  
field K3 questions, there are still many other products which will get  
responses from others at Elecraft. For example, just ask a KRC2  
question, and you will get my attention. ;-)

By the way, knowing how busy Eric, Wayne, Gary and a few others are, I  
really believe they are doing a fantastic job in keeping up with  
things. It really would be a big help if folks would keep list traffic  
to more technical discussions at this point. I think we would all  
appreciate it!
