[Elecraft] Power Supply?

It might be a good project for one of our home builders to design a project, or 
perhaps a repackaging of a commercial product to fit in the P3 case.  Since I 
don't yet own a P3, I am not sure how big that task might be.  While I am coming 
to believe that Wayne and Eric can do anything, they certainly don't have time 
to do everything and a lot of things that we would like to see would not add to 
the longivity of Elecraft.  The prosperity of Elecraft is certainly in all us 
Elecraft users best interest.

From my experience in the world of pro audio, i can attest to the the 
expense of complying with safety certifications like this, and I think 
that Elecraft is wise to steer clear of it. For that matter, I have yet 
to see Elecraft make a bad business decision. One of Elecraft's greatest 
strengths is Eric's business acumen.
