Norm,
I think you are seeing that the answer is: absolutely not! But the list
traffic is light because the K1 is, well, a less complex radio. I'm finally
getting around to adding the noise blanker to mine, but it's a six-bander
-- with a board swap. Thank you, Elecraft!
W/best regards,
Hey Norm,
are you kidding ?
I operate every Elecraft i own and the K1 is the center of my QRP
station.
Look at the attached pic ;-)

My K2 is doing a piit-stop in this period with Don W3FPR
reccomendations, but soon it will go back on the air.

Yes, also
I have been running K1 0291 for around 7 years now on 40 and 20 meters almost
exclusively QRP Mobile. Have worked all over the world with this setup using
only the K1 and Hamstick or Hamstick clone whips, mainly on 40. Just dabbled
in the CW SS a couple of weeks ago with this setup for about
Norm, there’s lots of us out here with a K1 and KX1 that still use them!! N7EDK

Reading through all the posts on this list, it just occurred to me - am I the

Norm,
I can attest to the fact that you are not the only one still using the
K1, it is still a very fine transceiver.
The K2 is longer lived than the K1, it was the start of Elecraft in
1998, and is still in production 20 years later.

Hi Norm,
I power up all my E-gear periodically, including the K1, to remind myself of
how much fun it was to design (and to build S/N 001, which always qualifies
as a home-brew project).
Hope you’re enjoying yours.

Only because that's what has been donated - Much of the studio
equipment has been donated by Amateur Radio Manufacturers. When
a manufacturer makes cheap rigs they can afford to give them away!

Mike,
I bet the equipment is donated and besides these non-USA manufacturers
have been advertising and thus supporting the league for many years.They
also make good gear but remember
I see a Flex - 5000 in the list.
Hey I'm an Elecraft fan. I love there products and people. I own and operate
KX3. I do not have any Flex equipment. But I believe there is an American
designed and made transceiver in the equipment list (Studio 2).

Tom, I have owned 2 Porsches, a 944 and a Boxster. I now have a Scion FR-S,
and its cornering is awfully close, if not on a par, with those machines.
Still dreaming of a 911, though.

NOTHING goes around a corner like a Porsche !!!
My Mini Cooper S does a great simulation, but it
I thought the thing about Porsche 911s was that in the wet you have to go
round roundabouts twice. (I suspect this joke won't traverse the Atlantic
well, but never mind)
I don't have a problem with Non-US radios in W1AW but I agree it would be
nice to see an Elecraft radio there as well.
