[Elecraft] Prospective K4

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

That's the reason I purchased my K3S, P3, KPA500 and KAT500 all within 
the past 2 years.  At 77 years young, I figure it will be my last ham 
radio station until I'm QRT.     I used a P-Touch and put a nice label 
with the model, s/n, and price paid and my call on each of the boxes.

I figure in the end some auctioneer will sell it for $0.01 on the dollar 
if lucky.  "You know that McGraw fellow was one of them CB operators and 
had some weird looking equipment".   And furthermore, for the same 
reason, I liquidated my shop test equipment.  I wanted to enjoy the 
benefits of the money while still on the green side of the grass, as 
opposed to looking up at the roots from inside of a satin lined 
coffin.   "Beam me up Scottie, there's no intelligent life here".   
Chuck me in the oven and toss my ashes to the wind.

Bob, K4TAX
