[Elecraft] Strong recommendation: MFJ 18xx-series single-band whips for KX3, etc.

Thanks for the Mac pointer and advice. Now to see if I can find enough time
to do some modeling.

I do software stuff and spend a lot of time in the "Console" -- Windows
version of that is just so clunky... shudder -- At least the mac is Unix
like so matches all the servers with run Linux. Don't forget Windows has
been training users on their version of UI for 20 odd years. It may take
more than 5 minutes to figure out Mac or Linux. But neither is too hard to
pick up. In fact, Linux has a "Redmond" mode if you really need it to look
similar.
