Hi, I share the feelings of most of the most recent posters. I have no idea who is behind the new P.O. box in Santa Cruz which according to Wikipedia was established in October 2015. I wish them luck, crossing my fingers, but not holding much hope for their success.
Now, to the OT: part. Elecraft is living proof that the demise of Heathkit didn't have to be an inevitable thing. Heathkit died, not only because technology changed but more so by serious corporate mismanagement. Once the original company was sold to Zenith, the writing was on the wall. Had entrepreneurial folks, that were probably very similar in talent to Eric and Wayne remained in control, Heathkit could have survived to this day. I am one of the old-timers who remembers the heyday of Heathkit and considers its demise nothing short of a national tragedy (yes, we built Heathkits in Norway, too). AB2TC - Knut PS. My spelling checker doesn't recognize "Heathkit". Sigh.
