Finally!!
Elecraft decide to implement a couple of hardware upgrades, not fixes,
upgrades, and the nattering nay bobs of negativism come unglued.
You can barely get IKENSU to pay attention to design failures and fixes,
FT1K/D/MP/Mk5 key clicks, IC-756Pro/II/III first CW character "popping",
IC-2720 roasting finals like they're cheap, but Elecraft get taken to
task by some because they weren't consulted first or notified in
advance? Who the hell do some of you people think you are?
Check me if I'm wrong but don't IKENSU make you buy a whole new radio
for "upgrades"? How many IC-756Pro's or Orion I's are running around
with color LCD's? None, zero, zip, nada. Were those upgrades made
available to owners of the older rigs? Nope.
Thanks Joe.
