[Elecraft] Remotable external tuner

[Ken Alexander]

Hi Dick,

I would think so, but it doesn't strike me that they need the help.  My understanding is that they tuners they currently sell are very good.  It probably wouldn't be too much of a stretch to take a proven performer, modify it according to some of the wish list items floating around and provide a weatherproof cabinet for it.

73 - Ken
