[Elecraft] Fwd: Re: K1-4 4 band version gone?

[Phil Wheeler]

Really? Thought I saw one.  Hmm ... I just took a 
look and it looks like you are right; maybe now 
you have to change out two band modules. If so my 
4-band K1 is now golden.

Perhaps Elecraft is phasing out the K1? Or maybe 
some part no longer available. It's been around a 
while: I built S/N #18 during my K2 "process".

Adding the backlight mod this weekend if it 
arrives in time. And I'm going for the bright 
option: 0.006 Amps vs. 0.010 Amps? 4 mA won't 
shorten my operating time on batteries much!
