[Elecraft] K2 Padded Carry Case from Rose Kopp

After quite a bit of thought, I worked up what I wanted and got Rose 
Kopp to build me one of her carry cases for my K2 and all of it's 
accessories.  It came today, and I am a really happy ham right now! 
I've gotten interested in [possibly that's "addicted to"] Summits On The 
Air, and I really wanted a single package with the K2, battery, 
accessories, W1 wattmeter/SWR bridge, and paddle.  Carrying them 
separately invites forgetting something.  I had some customization I 
wanted, and I got it perfectly.

The case she built for me has enough pockets for all of the stuff, 
including my Journal and Log, a short strap handle and a shoulder strap, 
and it is going to make "Radio Field Trips" soooo much easier.  It's 
more than adequately padded for an aircraft carry-on.  I'll send a 
couple of photos to anyone who is interested.

This Elecraft stuff just gets better and better.  FWIW:  In the CQ WW 
RTTY, there was significant TE prop on 10 today midday, and may have 
been other prop, just nobody there.  K3 is a real dream on AFSK A.  I'll 
hit 40 again a bit later.
