[Elecraft] Seeing many wanted ads for the K2 on eham.net

[KW4H]

Just my two cents ... Elecraft gear in general can be very hard to come by
on the used market, and I think this is primarily due to the fact that once
you own an Elecraft there's really not much of a reason to sell it for
something else.

I'm showing my age here, but I remember well the days of Heathkit -- and in
my opinion the folks at Elecraft have done a superb job of taking the
Heathkit model to the next level -- they make a damn fine kit radio without
compromises.  Heathkits were, well, "decent" gear, but in its day considered
on the expensive side for what you got.  Elecraft gear isn't cheap, but you
get all that you pay for, and more.  Hence the high retention rate.
