Hi all, it's been awhile since I last posted to the reflector. There has been quite a bit of noise out there about "disatifaction with Elecraft Support". Now I can sympathise with anyone who is experiencing problems with building rigs. Over a year ago I managed to wreck Two (2) perfectly good K2s - due to lack of knowledge, skill and proper tools/equipment, and most of all lack of patience. Boo - hoo me! My impatience and desire to have the perfect rig took over and disaster resulted. Sure it hurt at the time, but I assigned all the blame to myself and have moved on. For the past year now I have regrouped, retooled and adapted a more rational attitude toward Amateur Radio. Iv'e managed to build a few simpler rigs from various companies and have also put together some accessories for the shack. My soldering annd building skills have greatly improved and I have gained more knowledge, Most of all I have learned patience. I'm still young (53) and have at least a couple of solar maximums left. Maybe next year I'll build that k2 (or K3 hi! hi!) But what is really important for me is that I am still greatly satisified with Amateur Radio, and for that matter Elecraft Inc. Just recently I got 2 people interested in this hobby.I have also rediscovered the fun of operating portable QRP in the field. Just do something constructive instead of dwelling upon the negative.Group therapy might help.So ADAPT A NEW PERSPECTIVE. Elecraft is a good company. I like what they do. And I will continue to be a satisified customer. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
