Differences between discrete and discretize: Latter is a transitive verb belonging to the engineering/mathematics/physics world (and perhaps beyond). It would be difficult to "discrete" something. "To Discrete" does not exist as a transitive verb.
Your intent may have been to comment privately, but it didn't come out that way...all your persiflage went out on the reflector, and its intent was clearly to embarrass. Using the reflector to make fun of something you may not understand is pretty bad form, but more important than that, your sport-making interfered with a point with which I was trying to help a list participant. The point is that when one designs an automatic ATU without servos (like the old Collins AN/ART-13), one is pretty much stuck with discretized components. The ATUs for the K2/K3 are carefully designed, whereas the discrete components in some other commercial automatic ATUs are not as carefully chosen. The K3 ATU is not an option I would forgo, particularly if I were considering mobile operation.
