[Elecraft] Fantastic Service

[Bill Frantz]

I don't think so. We're discussing how to convince a non-ham SO 
to be willing to allow expenditures on things that totally 
disinterest them.

There is at least one person who has posted on this list that he 
and his SO have an, "equal money for hobbies" agreement, and he 
needed to spend some money to even things out.

In my case, my wife is a ham, but not interested in radio 
technology. She just, "Wants it to work" and does mostly emcom. 
She is interested in fiber arts, so I'm the local spinning wheel 
mechanic. I knit as a part of keeping the relationship together. 
(And to have socks that fit.) I once knit her a sweater using 
yarn that she had spun, if that's not too self-referencial. She 
doesn't complain when I spend money on ham radio stuff, but I 
try to be reasonable.
