[Elecraft] A hat was saved (totally apropos of nothing)

[Nate Bargmann]

Don't feel too bad, Bob, you're not the only one.

I bought my K3 in autumn 2010 and have optioned it up over the years,
the last big upgrade being the second receiver in late 2017.  I ordered
everything with the expectation that I would receive what I had ordered
and I did, nothing more, nothing less, except that I was pleased that
the filters I received for the second receiver were matched very close
to the filters I had originally ordered for the K3.  Kudos to the staff
for maintaining that database even though over seven years had elapsed.
The filters are close enough that I have no issues with diversity
receive.

A friend was at Dayton some years back (I was last there in '06) and
gave me a K3 button he picked up.  That is the only "swag" I have from
Elecraft.  I have numerous Yaesu caps, a few Icom caps (I don't wear
either brand), and a DX Engineering cap even though DXE has probably
gotten less of my money over the years than Elecraft!

It is what it is, as they say.

73, Nate, N0NB
