[Elecraft] OT: Good time to buy Begali products

[Charlie T, K3ICH]

I think there's a matter of semantics here.

I believe the comment that "the exchange rate will not affect Dayton prices" 
can be interpreted as Begali will NOT purposely raise their prices BECAUSE 
of the exchange rate.

As the dollar gets stronger, it means their prices will yield the same in 
Euro as before, except that it will take fewer dollars to buy them.
