[Elecraft] I thought Elecraft was a household name!

*Nate,

Um, in 2007 I had never heard of Elecraft either. Come to think of it, I
thought I was told the wrong name and that it was Hallicrafter...:-(

Some of us ARE a bit slow on the uptake mate.

Now I own no other breed and the "Terrible Twins" at Elecraft are doing
their best to keep me poor!

Wonder what the 'next' must have gem will be, I shudder to think and my
bank balance keeps shrinking!
