And so was I -- and founder Al Kahn who sold Electro-Voice, another 
great American company he co-founded in the '30s, did a lot to keep 
Heathkit and ARRL alive during WWII, and founded Ten Tec, with a factory 
across the road from EV's in TN.

In those days, Collins at the high price point, and Ten Tec and Drake at 
the lower point, were dedicated to quality. Everyone associated with 
those great companies has been in the ground for many years. Elecraft 
founders and Owners, Wayne Burdick and Eric Swartz, are their more than 
worthy successors. I currently own four of their radios and two of their 
power amps, and they're they are by far they best I've owned.
