[Elecraft] Steel in some K-line enclosures

[David G4DMP]

This may not always be the same, Jim. My first XV144 transverter had
steel top and bottom covers, but in later XV--- transverters they were
made of aluminium. The type of material used could have something to do
with availability, cost, weight or strength. Unless Elecraft state
otherwise, it may not be wise to assume that they always use the same
type of material.
