Man! This must be the first time I have ever been right about the Elecraft

Man, I love it when there is an opening. Notice how Wayne ruled out very
specific power levels. My money is on the 400-500W class amp in the "same
sized box as the K3".
Seriously, I really enjoy the speculation on the list, even when there is
stoney silence from The Mountain. I'm sure a large part of Elecraft's market
research comes in the form of just letting people toss ideas around on the
reflector. When enough data is gathered (or the s/n ratio gets too low),
it's time to end the thread.
As always, stay tuned- whatever each of us may think is coming next, we are
probably wrong.
73 all,
Bruce N1RX
