Rick,

Even in "HAM radio" there's party-divisions, can't we have more "consensus-builders"?

There's the "Left-faction & there's the Right-faction" we "Middle-roaders" deserve to be 
considered
as well by Elecraft as far as the up & coming "P3" is concerned!

They should mount ALL rear connectors & jacks "EQUAL DISTANCE" from both sides of the unit!

That way "EVERYBODY'S HAPPY?"  :-)))
