Re: [Elecraft] Who's your favorite Elecraft Elmer?
As Trustee for the NØSS memorial call sign, I want to thank Don Wilhelm and Russ Boutell for remembering Tom Hammond and his Elecraft legacy, as well as others who still revere his memory. A more unselfishly helpful person never walked this Earth. I will make sure the club knows about Don's kind words for our efforts in maintaining Tom's website material at our monthly meeting tomorrow night. 73, Kent Trimble, K9ZTV Jefferson City, Missouri On 3/13/2019 2:03 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: I agree that Tom Hammond N0SS (SK) created a valuable website with a lot of information related to Elecraft products (particularly the K1 and K2) and ham radio in general.

I totally agree, Don W3FPR is awesome. His knowledge of Elecraft equipment is superb.

[Elecraft] Who's your favorite Elecraft Elmer?
I wholeheartedly agree! Don has helped so many with his vast knowledge and patience. I have seen him at many Hamfests teaching the masses about Elecraft products. His comments and answers to questions on this list go unmatched anywhere. Those who have sent radios in to him to repair over the ages know his commitment to Elecraft and Amateur Radio in general. I would like to add my support to Don as my favorite Elecraft Elmer!

Re: [Elecraft] Who's your favorite Elecraft Elmer?
I am going to recommend Mike Blake K9JRI. He is an excellent diagnostician and understands a schematic better than most folks. He’s also an experienced networking engineer and administrator which goes a long way to solving some of the issues that seem hardware based at first.

Re: [Elecraft] Who's your favorite Elecraft Elmer?
Well, someone already put Don Wilhelm at the top of this list. So I’ll add my two: Joe Subich and Jim Brown. Both of these guys have answered many questions about so many topics, not just Elecraft. I have a lot of respect for their opinions.

One thing that defines Elecraft is an extended community comprised of builders, operators, tinkerers, and friends. It's been gratifying to watch the breadth and depth of this interaction over the years (mostly civilized and helpful :) In particular, we'd like to recognize those who have stepped up to become "Elecraft Elmers," helping get others' kits working, figuring out cabling or software setup problems, and coaching new operators about how to make the most of their radios' features on the air. If you have someone in mind, please tell us who they are and how they helped. Specific examples with short narratives would be great. We'll include as many of your stories as possible in upcoming newsletters.
