This is true for some people, but many folks can't get past the looks of a rig.
A "well-known" ham in Nevada likes to get on 75 meters and when the subject of the K3 he once owned (for just a few days) comes up, he loves to retell the reasons why he got rid of it. "It looked like it was put together with chewing gum," -- which is his way of saying that the cabinet, knobs and lights don't have that cool, sculpted, flashy look. For a lot of appliance operators, these things are very important. "Eye candy," I think they call it. >> There comes a time when you realize that Functionality is better than flash. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
