Elecraft Song

Craig Black-3
With apologies to Mr Buffett and Parrot Heads
everywhere (I've got Boats to Build).
Listen to the song while you build your Elecraft and
check out these words.

I got Kits to build

It's time for a change
I'm tired of that same ol same
The same ol rigs the same ol dynes
The same ol bands and the same ol times

Parts many parts
Inventory is not much fun
I got leads to bend I got caps to find
I got logs to fill I got lists to run

I'm gonna build me a kit
With these two hands
It'll be a fine rig
>From an Elecraft man
Let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got kits to build

FETs are just like tubes
Too much gain can make em sing
Logs of DX  from a rare zone
Logs of contacts far from home
I'm gonna build me a kit
With these two hands
It'll be a fine rig
>From an Elecraft man
Let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got kits to build

Cores ferrite cores
Torrid winding is a chore
Lighted magnifier to guide the way
Solder through night into the day

I'm gonna build me a kit
With these two hands
It'll be a fine rig
>From an Elecraft man
Let the chips fall where they will
Cause I've got kits to build

Re: Elecraft Song

Curt Milton
Craig

Don't quit your day job (even if Clint Black is a
close relative) !  

Even though my KAT100 doesn't work yet, I am not
singing the blues or one of those teary C&W songs ...
I am working DX on the low bands with my humble
antennas attached to my K2 !  

Building (including winding those cores) is part of
the fun ... when you have another rig to use in the
mean time.  

I am not fretting (pun intended) lack of sunspots, or
not having $$ to buy a K3 ... its K2 (or K1 or KX1)
time for those not enjoying the latest rig.  

73, curt
