With the growing catalog of Elecraft products, it would be a great enhancement
to clarity were the model designation of various accessories that are particular
to one rig revised to contain the full base model designation in the first few
letters, viz.:

KX3PA vs. KXPA100
KX3AT vs. KXAT3
K1NB vs. KNB1
K1FL4 vs. KFL1-4
K2R160 vs. K160RX
K2AT100 vs. KAT100
K2XV60 vs. K60XV
K2PA100 vs. KPA100
K3TCXO vs. KTCXO3
K3FLA400 vs. KFL3A-400
etc., etc., etc.!

The suggested revision would make it obvious what accessory goes to what rig,
which has certainly not been the case for several years.  It will only get
worse as the Elecraft catalog grows.  IMHO, of course.

In 2011? (Only a few days left.)  Or...later, in 2012?
