I think the answer to your question of how many Elecraft owners there
are in the UK is 'A LOT'. My article on the K2 in RadCom in March
2003 generated a lot of interest. In my own local club we have around
5 members who have one or other kit and I know quite a few more..
Look out for my K2 in WPX CW this weekend!
Oh, and as an aside, what has happened to this list these last couple
of days. Each day I am getting two digests of around 100k each, 3 or
4 times normal postings. Was Dayton really that good??
