[Elecraft] K1 Discontinued

[Fred Jensen]

R.I.P. K1.  I never had one, but on a SOTA activation with Rich, NU6T, 
several years ago, we traded rigs for a bit and I got to run his K1.  
Really great little radio.  I was giving some consideration to selling 
my K2/10 and getting a KX2, but then I spent some time with the K2 on 
the air and 86'd that idea.  My K2 is likely to be part of my estate.
