[Elecraft] KPA-800 etc.

[Erik N Basilier]

IMHO it seems that Elecraft has a unique formula for superior development 
work at lradically lower cost (just look at what they have done with so few 
people), and I don't think they want to bring that cost up to what other 
companies are paying. Telling them what they are not able to do doesn't seem 
like a good bet.

IMHO, taking the OEM route is Elecraft's best approach to meeting the demand 
for amplifiers and other products that are expensive to develop and bring to 
market. Elecraft is a small company with very limited capital and resources 
and new, R&D intensive products are unlikely to be commercially viable.
