[Elecraft] Elecraft Support

I don't either. I read every single post in this thread and I didn't 
think anybody was trying to start a holy war.

To the guys who built all your gear from through hole parts...good for 
ya. Those days are gone. There will be no more rigs like the K2 when the 
parts are unobtainable. Better get you heads around SMT.

To all the guys who just want to operate...good for you. You are at 
distinct disadvantage when it comes to how the radio works. Quality time 
with ALL the manuals, including the assembly manuals, can help.

To all the guys who like and do both...I'm one of you. K2/100 #4684 was 
my main rig for years. I will NEVER sell it.
