Actually Harry, how else would an owner of Elecraft equipment easily become
aware of what's available? No different than a vehicle vendor offering floor mats manufactured by another vendor. Two after-market vendors come to mind that are Elecraft-specific, and are occasionally "plugged" by list members. I purchased their products after becoming aware of them on the list. Much more efficient than a Google search. FWIW ...

Harry I would respectfully disagree with some of your post. Because of
questions from others I have learned a lot about using antennas with my KX2 while camping, I have been able to investigate side products that work with my K3s and have purchased a few of them and they have enhanced my operating with my rigs. I would not have known about them otherwise. I have seen posts about some RFI and followed some suggestions that has helped reduce my RFI. These may not have been directly elecraft products but they have really helped me. Some forums are too strict for me and not very friendly, this one has just the right balance for me. Not having an electronics background I have learned a lot. It reminds me of another forum I really like, DXlab where no question is to be slighted, and it is a very open learning format. I feel the same about this one. Nurturing a learning environment for all in the hobby who buy elecraft, to me, is important.There have been a few threads that should have been stopped and were. Being offended easily, being grumpy, or unwilling to entertain other's views is not needed. I find it very easy to delete posts I do not need. I hope you stay on because it sounds like you have experience and can help others who might be new or not have a technology background. Have a great day. Today is a good day to have a Great Day! 73 Ron Wilcox KF7ZN RN, BSN Secretary Utah DX Club ARRL & W5YI VE ARRL Instructor On Sat, May 27, 2017 at 11:38 AM, Rose <[hidden email]> wrote: > Actually Harry, how else would an owner of Elecraft equipment easily become > aware of what's available? > > No different than a vehicle vendor offering floor mats manufactured by > another vendor. > > Two after-market vendors come to mind that are Elecraft-specific, and are > occasionally "plugged" by list members. > I purchased their products after becoming aware of them on the list.

The way to encourage more posts like this is to reply to them, he said with
an embarrassed look. On Sat, 27 May 2017 at 13:55 Ron Wilcox <[hidden email]> wrote: > Harry I would respectfully disagree with some of your post.

Define learning environment. The Internet is a terrible place to "learn" anything. It's 90% advertisement, 5% porn, and 5% information, three fourths of which is just plain wrong. >Being offended easily, being grumpy, or unwilling to entertain > other's views is not needed. Thanks Mom. I am not offended easily. I am Grumpy, I've earned it. I do not suffer fools well, especially those who haven't taken the time to at least skim the manual and those people stick out like a putrefied thumb. I do entertain others views. Many of them are so tragically wrong they can't be classified as anything other than entertainment. There is no guarantee in the US Constitution of never being offended, even if some are trying to weasel one in there by hook or by crook. It's knife that cuts both ways. >I find it very easy to delete posts I do not > need. Ditto. > -- R.

I think it best to respond to Harry directly, OFF LIST, as he has now created the situation he was complaining about. I have directly responded to him, yet my response here has also extended the comments myself. Besides, this is a job best done by Erick.
