[Elecraft] Son of K3?? & P3 keyboard interface

[W4CCS]

Hi Gary:

Here is my take on Dayton 2010..

The Elecraft booth was by far the most popular place to be. Saw the new 
P3 and the new KPA500. Both were impressive. No pictures from me. I had 
enough to tote around..

  The new Kenwood radio was good to see but not a lot of interest by my 
observation.

Yaesu's boot was full mostly of people looking for a free hat, myself 
included ( just put it on the self with the other 6 or 7 I have).

Alpha showed there new 6 meter offering. Runs a 4CX1500 tube and will 
delver lots of smoke on six. Not yet type accepted or priced but the 
rumor was 5 to  6k.. OUCH..!!

The bone yard was much better this year over last. Much less plain 
"junk", lots of land mobile "junk".. Lots more actual ham equipment.

My observation is that this Datyton was much better then last year. Had 
lots of fun and met lots of great hams. By the end, both my feet and 
legs were very mad at me..
