The times they are a changin.

Glen Torr-2
Hi Ho All,

Absolutely no disrespect here, I am an extremely loyal and prolific
Elecraft user/builder.

The KX1 and K1 are gone and the KPA 1500 is ascending.

I have ordered a QRP Labs QCX, a very innovative and kit oriented radio.

The mantle at the lower end has moved on.

Cheers,

Glen VK1FB

I ordered a QCX too, it seems like it will be a good fun kit to build and
use.

I just got my "it shipped" e-mail this morning ... I was beginning to
wonder!

No doubt, small, single-band QRP kits are a bunch of fun.  (I still think
Dave Benson's Small Wonder Labs DSW-II is still one of the most innovative
designs - I have two.)

That said, they are no match for the K1 (or K2 now) when it comes to having
a "real radio."
