[Elecraft] Toughness

[John Huggins, kx4o]

Understood about the external features Ingo and good advice.

My primary concern is over the internal soundness of products touted as
portable.

Thruhole and surface mount components are quite sturdy.  Edge and header
connectors are, well, good enough most times.

My primary concern are those round masses held with wisps of wire...
toroids.  Has anyone ever seen toroids come loose and turn their rig into
a maraca?
