Definitely short-sighted. This position will change as more hams wise up and realize how this little upstart company makes rigs that stomp theirs flat at a fraction of the cost. I'm kicking myself for wasting my money thinking that an Icom 7700 was better than the K2, let alone the K3. And most of us would die of old age if we waited for a support response from the Big Three. Elecraft tries harder, and it shows! Elecraft: it doesn't matter if it's a K1, K2, or a K3, just as long as it's a "K". Accept no substitutes. 72 / 73, Bob WA4FOM In a message dated 6/16/2010 3:21:00 P.M.

This was LDG's response to my email: Short sighted! The Elecraft market is very small compared to the rest of the HF market. Yes, it is big for the kit market, but still very little in caparison to the entire HF radio market. Most of the big manufacturers sell more of one radio model than all of the Elecraft radios ever sold (combining all models).
