[Elecraft] Elecraft K3 Build Continuing ­ Reflection Point (Page 6)

[Matt Zilmer]

If I could offer my opinion, you _are_ wasting your time by asking
opinions of those with no desire to create / build / repair anything.
You will never get a positive response from those that have no idea
what they are missing.  Consumerism (the raw, ugly kind) rules the
markets today, not creativity or the need to build.

Where there is no spark, don't expect flame.

Just my two cents' worth.

Keep on buildin'!
