I made the original comment, and I was not "bashing" anyone. TenTec 
replaced an entire board and some individual components. I've had 
Elecraft troubleshoot boards rather than replace them. Beginning in the 
80s, I owned and liked Ten Tec transceivers, but learned the hard way 
that their service department is a profit center. I do not believe that 
to be true of Elecraft. Last month, Elecraft did replace a major board 
in my KPA500 because they deemed it unrepairable. The bill was under $400.
