[Elecraft] Guy Olinger criticism...

[John Ragle]

I don't exactly know what set this guy off, but I know what my antennas 
are doing because I use a vector network analyzer on them. I was simply 
comparing the K2's tuner with a couple of other tuners I've used. My 
points were (a) the KAT2 tuner is very good/outstanding for a switcher 
that uses discretized components, (b) an external tuner subtracts from 
the portability of the K2 or K3, and (c) the discretized components in 
the F3K are chosen for the low-frequency bands and don't work at all for 
10 or 6 if one is trying to match a hi-Q antenna structure, which may be 
not too far from 50+0i at its resonant frequency.
