[Elecraft] Front end protection

[WILLIE BABER]

My only point John is that replacing that diode with instructions for Elecraft is not at all difficult to do.

 I am surprised that you think it is
 not possible to accidentally set the
 bandpass filter to the wrong band or have an automatic
 switching relay
 fail, have a control wire pull out or just plain cockpit
 error after
 operating sleep deprived?  W0MU has a good point, if
 you're operating away
 from home like many of us do it could be a nice feature.

 I replaced that diode in my K3 with instructions from an
 Elecraft
 technican-person. I also at the point purchased bandpass
 filters so that I
 didn't have to worry about that happening again.
