Here we go. It just never ends. I apologize to the list for asking what is apparently a stupid, ignorant, unschooled, and ham-immoral question. Clearly beyond the bounds of “good amateur practice”. FWIW, I have also been subjected to multiple private emails implying the same, for which I thave privately taken umbrage. THIS IS NOT NECESSARY — from anyone. It was just a question!
I will NEVER ask another question about AM or bandwidth on this list. I bow to your collective excellence. I raise my arm in the appropriate salute. Folks, this is just beyond the pale :-( I asked one simple question. I got an answer from Elecraft, and I’m happy with that, Why not just STFU. I hope Eric has the sanity to close this thread. I’m out … and will privately and hopefully await the performance of the K4 in this regard.
