[Elecraft] CK722 transistor

[Bob]

They got my first order correct.  I'm taxing old dormant gray matter. But what 
was their first sales?

If I have it all correct the founders started out selling a PCB and parts kit 
for a design of a keyer
that was in QST, called Digikey. It used Motorola MC 700 series RTL logic on an 
about 1.5 inch
square.PCB.   Being the Pack Rat I am I'm sure it is still here somewhere

May Elecraft's growth be as great!!   I think it is well on its way.
