Having worked (contract) for several small companies that having a great product, like Topsy, "just grew"
They got bigger, brought in the Bean-counters, which meant "cost reduction" (aka cheaper) and the quality went down. I strongly suspect that's what has happened to Toyota with their commonality of parts (cost reduction) I wouldn't like to see Elecraft go the same route As for building kit radios... nothing beats the "Wow! it's working! " feeling ;^D Dave G. ______________________________________________________________ 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
