[Elecraft] Wait For The K4 Direct RF Sampled SDR?

[Bob]

"those last five will include a lightning storm over my house or
someone like W3LPL moving next door."

Been there, done that!

1) Antenna struck by lightning while radio was on.  Can you say
bye-bye antenna, coax, radio, power supply, computer, monitor, rig
interface, etc.?

2) Lived next door to Jim Lawson's (W2PV) super-station in
Schenectady, New York.  When he was on the air, you could hold a 4
foot long florescent lamp in your hand and walk in my side-yard and it
would flash along with the CW.  Kept me off the air most weekends.

These days I'm pretty sure that my K3 would survive #2.
