[Elecraft] Purpose of this group

[hbjr at optilink.us]

I monitored this group before I bought my K3s back in October.  I have learned how to make cables for various things, who makes good homebrew gear (and some guys that sell their own stuff for K3's and KX's), and even bought some used Elecraft gear hear.  

I'm not sure how to call out the wrong topics...I think we should all leave that to the moderators 😊

This group is more about sharing the experience of using Elecraft products, making suggestions for product improvements, offering other members advice on best operating techniques, and so much more.  Want a suggestion on which mic to use with your K3s? How to setup memories for cw ops? Use external software to operate your rig? The best type of PC to use or best approach to physically interface your rig to your PC? These are just a very small set of questions you might ask here.

This is an active community of devoted Elecraft users. But, it's also about ham radio. Any kind of serious support question should go directly to Elecraft's outstanding support staff via email.
