[Elecraft] Comments?

[David Gilbert]

Comment on what?  Other than his statement about the audio he doesn't 
say anything about why he rates one rig over another, so how would it be 
possible to judge?   And if he doesn't like the transmit audio on the K3 
with all of the tailoring it allows, it's pretty obvious he doesn't know 
how to set it up anyway.

I do agree that many reflector comments cross over into cult worship 
territory, but that's true of any of the major selling brands.

Best to let it slide ..

73,
Dave   AB7E
