Let's not forget Eric and the whole team. What a group. Wayne and Eric as a startup were off the charts when it came to design for those of us who wanted high quality at a reasonable price. I would love to own stock and be on the board of directors, but I am sure that isn't going to happen. :-)

The KPA500 is almost impossibly small for amp + supply. This extreme compactness of the amplifier will be the big selling point for many buyers. Maybe the KAT500 will be in a P3 case. The other thing is to remote the KAT500 (exactly what I do with something like that). Putting it in the box with the KPA500 tosses this very valuable option. I think Wayne has this very well thought out. AND a company his size can only successfully introduce so much at one time. We DO want him to stay successful, profitable, and still updating firmware, and introducing new stuff. 73, Guy ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
