Elecraft Name Origin

[Elecraft mailing list]

I saw Wayne and Eric’s interview on HamNation and enjoyed it very much. It is always enlightening to know how things like Elecraft got started.  

I saw the interview on replay and would have liked to ask them about the origin of “Elecraft” brand name.  Can someone fill me in?

Lee,

I believe it's related to "elegant craft".  I'm sure we'll hear about it if
I'm wrong.

We came up with a dozen names. This one stuck. And yes, “elegant craft” was one inspirational phrase.
