[TenTec] Open sourcing again

[Ron Castro]

IIRC it was about 2 and a half years ago they showed the first prototypes 
which you can see at:

www.n6ie.com/Elecraft.html

They claimed that they production was being held up by FCC type-acceptance 
red tape, but in truth, the then-secret K3 project was taking up their time 
and the KPA 800 and KPA 1500 were put on the shelf.  Good to hear they're 
working on them again.
