Good news is I got a few of the fuzz strings out and the tension has freed up 'some'. Bad news is it's not back to where it use to be. But hey it's a lot better, guess some of the fiber strings were inside where I couldn't get them out. Maybe they will work themselves out in the future, I hope. Thanks again for the K2 reply, now I can unsubscribe again. Can't cope with the, 'All K3 All the Time' aspect of the list. Shrug, yea you're right, I'm just jealous cause I can't afford one, oh well, maybe they will break up the lists some day and I can come back to stay. -- GB & 73 KA5OAI Sam Morgan ______________________________________________________________ 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
