[Elecraft] QRP

[tnnyswy at yahoo.com]

WHY! Why, oh Why?  When someone take the Time and Effort to create something of high Quality.
There is always some fault being found with it?
It's either the price is too high, the box isn't fancy enough or it's of the wrong color. You name it!!!!! 
In the same breath, we'll complain bitterly about the Cheap Chinese Junk! 

Lord knows, it doesn't seems to be any pleasing some of us! 

((((73)))) Milverton.
