[Elecraft] K4

[Gary Smith]

My father, W1BML (SK) worked for General 
Dynamics from 62 till retirement in the 
early 80's as principal engineer in 
electronics on submarines in Groton, CT. 
In WWII he worked in the Philadelphia Navy 
Yard designing submarine propulsion.

He never once revealed any Navy/military 
secret, even back from WWII. Some people 
keep their word.

73

& Kudos to Elecraft on another wonderful 
venture.
