Elecraft has carved out a substantial, and very loyal, niche in the ham radio market over the past 3 decades. Their focus on superior performance, portability and high-touch customer service has earned them a place in many an amateur radio operator’s shack, and heart. Eric Swartz, WA6HHQ, who co-founded Elecraft with Wayne Burdick, N6KR, joined me for this conversation about their early days in business, the development of the K2 and it’s evolution to the K4D and Elecraft’s commitment to the remote market. Join me for what is sure to be Part I in a continuing conversation with Elecraft.
