FW: The Big Four: YETI

Dan Barker
I disagree. The YaeComWood moniker implies these appliances are
interchangeable/indistinguishable. The Elecraft rigs most certainly are not!

Dan / WG4S / K2 #2456

I suggest a more proper reference might be "YETI" -- for Yaesu / Elecraft /
Tentec / and Icom.

Maybe it should be something more along the lines of ...

IT YAKS (Icom-TenTec Yaesu-Alinco-Kenwood-SGC) ... what most appliance
operators do with their commercial radios

or... ITS a YAK (big hairy animal used as a beast of burden - not to be
confused with some ham radio operators)

or... maybe even ATIYKS (where you're Alinco-TenTec-Icom-Yaesu-Kenwood-SGC
radio will end up after you buy an Elecraft).

I'm afraid that's the best I can do ;-) and, no, I don't play Scrabble.

72/73,

(... who REALLY wanted to operate Field Day, but ended up moving in a few
essentials to his new home and made good friends with the neighbors instead -
but who is itching to put a 175' stealthy longwire NVIS antenna on his wooden
backyard fence and a 20' compact loop for 20m in his attic)

Sorry - Yahoo! mail kept saying invalid mailbox state each time I clicked
'send'. My deepest apologies for the repeated posting to the list.
