[TenTec] Model 1225 SWR and Wattmeter Kit

[K8JHR]

Golly Jim, given your predilection for E-brand gear, I am surprised you 
don't tout the Elecraft W2 meter.   Why did you pass it over, in favor 
of the LP-100?   The W2 seems like a lot of meter, including an 
amplifier protection alarm circuit, for half the cost of the LP-100.  is 
the L_100 that much better?

(PS - I have met Larry from Telepost multiple times, and he is from the 
beautiful state of Michigan, a capital fellow with good stuff.)
