[Elecraft] KPA500 age

[Fred Jensen]

I would agree that there is very little if anything in a KPA500 to 
deteriorate solely from age, unless we're talking about hundreds of 
years.  That said, perhaps John is concerned that, if the seller is not 
being truthful about the age, he may not be truthful about other things 
as well, such as abuse.  Just a guess, I suspect I'd be concerned.
