[Elecraft] Rusting screws

Elecraft should just cost all equipment usiing the SS screws and get over it and move on.

The painted screws simply demean the appearance of the equipment and it looks pretty awful I reckon.

Enuff said..SS screws on all products PLEASE?

  I agree and used the SS on the K3 kit because I knew that the rig would go
  seaside and to Hawaii a few times.  Not available for the P3 or KPA500.

  My suggestion is to simply send out ONLY SS screws (even if US$15 more) and
  it becomes a non-issue.  All kits/builds, all metal screws, all stainless.
  Simpler to stock too.

  Now, if Elecraft would offer a similar SS Screw option for both the P3 and 
  KPA500 (as well as the up and coming KAT500 and the KX3) then we'd all be on

  a winner.

  How about it Wayne & Eric, we'd like SS screw kits for the P3, KPA500, 
  KAT500 & KX3 please.
