Re: [Elecraft] [KX3] Hardware
Hi Clint, Nearly all of the KX3's hardware is already stainless steel. We knew the rig would get a lot of outdoor use in places with salt air and Mai-Tai's, both equally corrosive. The thumbscrews are the only exception; they're steel-zinc, but plated, and we used them on earlier products with good results. Even these would go to stainless steel if it ever became an issue. 73, Wayne N6KR > On Wednesday January 2nd 2013 at 13:00:22 EST Clint Stark KI6SSN posted ... > > "Has anyone heard anything about stainless / corrosion [resistant] hardware > for the mighty KX3?" __ 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 Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
