As I'm new to the Elecraft discussion list, I run the danger of
repeating that which has gone before.  However from reading the
suggestions for new products, I could not help feeling there is a
yawning gap.

As the happy owner of an XV144 transverter, I have long been considering
the K2 as my next purchase.

Reading RADCOM recently, I was introduced to the Softrock SDR receiver
kits being sold by Tony Parks (KB9YIG) for the incredible price of $15
including postage to the UK (well done Tony).  I am now convinced that
the SDR is the future of radio and am torn between buying the SDR1000 by
Flex Radio and truly having a BLACK BOX or going the K2 route.  
Naturally an Elecraft SDR would solve my dilemma.   A  modular system
allowing the builder to start simple and build to a fully featured HF
radio would be fabulous.

If you haven't got one already buy a Softrock receiver you'll love it.
