[Elecraft] Would anyone like to see an all-mode VHF/UHF offering from Elecraft?

[Richard Solomon]

While the idea of a multi-band, all-mode VHF-UHF radio sounds good, how
many folks have the necessary equipment to make sure it works after you
bolt everything together. All you need to do is just slightly move a 
coil and
can knock the whole thing out of whack.

Of course, if it's supplied assembled and tested, then forget what I 
wrote. But
then the price will go up, way up !!
