[Elecraft] addendum to K2 problem

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Having heard stories like this hundreds of times over the years, why do we
start by thinking the radio is broken?  :>))  Wish I had a buck for every
post here complaining about radio gear that wound up completely external to
K2, K3, KATxxx, etc. In some cases it was a really hard sell to get the guy
to go outside to find where the problem really was.

Is that because the radio is in front of us and has lights on, and
therefore is what our eyes fasten upon?  Or are we really that
pre-disaffected with our radios?

73, Guy K2AV
