Hi David, (& others?) My apologies for not making the distinction that we really ALL need to support our respective infrastructures. The selfish part of me thanks you for supporting the company I feel represents the very zenith of amateur radio transceiver manufacturing and support. (And, of course, helping them to survive during these tough economic times.)
How are things wrt transceiver manufacturers across the pond? Is Philips an actual domestic manufacturer or are they like our Uniden? Great products but not truly domestic. In any event, I meant no offense to the non-USA members of the Elecraft family (Isn't that what we really what we are?) and I offer my sincerest apologies if any was taken. Wishing you all a warm, happy and healthy holiday season and beyond. As always, take care es...
