A while ago, I berated some poor soul at ARRL HQ for the lack of US-made
equipment in so many of the photos that they post.
I've never visited ARRL HQ so I don't know if they already have it, but
I'd like to see a vintage-equipment station, as well as more Elecraft
and Ten-Tec equipment.
Collins and Drake would make a nice pair.

Indeed Elecraft has been a real blessing for DX-peditioners.
We owe Eric and Wayne a lot of gratitude for their efforts.
In fact even the K2 was a big boost in opportunity for DX-peditioners. That
really revolutionized the equipment scenario. For the first time
contest-grade rigs were available in a tiny package!
At the same time we should not forget Mike and John from StepIR who do their
more than their fair share in sponsoring DX-peditions as well.
And then there's that tiny German antenna company... but I won't mention it
here. ;-)
