[Elecraft] K1 'replacement'

[inventor61]

I, too, built a K1 after I had my K2 for a good while.

Still have the K2, #771, which has been powered on almost continuously
since I built it in 1999.  By that measure, it's the World's Most
Experienced Elecraft.  I use it every day.

Sold the K1 years ago when I was trying to right size the collection of
gear that inevitably piles up.  But, I sort of missed it, a little.

Got a QCX Mini for 40 Meters.  Kit form, of course.

Then I got the QDX from the same folks ... and I am now looking really hard
at their newer QMX.

What exactly IS it about little kit radios that's so ... motivating?  I
can't be the only one that harbors this affliction.
