100 K3's shipped

Vk2NU
Congrat's to Elecraft on shipping the first 100 K3's !!

Would imagine it is going to be a busy week ahead shipping the remaining 100 from Run#1 prior to the 30/Nov.

Keep up the good work !!

David, VK2NU

David,
 
Yes 100 units is a big accomplishment.......congratulations to  Elecraft.  
Yes I remember production run
1 was increased to 200 units also.....and to think there is still 100 to go  
before #2 starts.
 
I guess anyone in production runs 2 and 3 still have a lot of waiting  before
theirs arrive!

After Erics last status, I was rather expecting 1/2 May to be shipping next
week!
And at least one from 1-May has reached its new home - but not here!

Guys (& Gals),
                        My  K3 will ship Monday, it was ordered 4th of May
and it looks like (not confirmed)  that it will be just under the 100 serial
number. It would have shipped this  week but my credit card company viewed the
request from Elecraft as a possible  fraudulent transaction and put a hold on
the payment! When I cleared up the  situation 4 hours later I had missed the
shipping for that day and hence will  receive it around Wednesday next week (28th
of November).
 
I'm looking forward to the build and operating the 'beast'...
 
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you in the USA...

Now that is interesting.  Vic G7PYR reports that his order placed on May
4 is being filled.  I ordered with 50% deposit on May  2 and I've not
even heard from them yet...

I can't quite remember when I ordered mine (with 50% deposit) but the
order acknowledgement was received on 5th May and I seem to remember
waiting a day or two for the acknowledgement.

Nothing heard here either.

My order of April 30 is on its way now.  It  was ready to ship late last week
but my credit card company thought the charge  was "suspicious activity" so
it got delayed.  

The reference number  on the invoice is  SO #50067 but I won't know if that
is the serial number  until the box gets here. (:)-  (faced pressed to the  
glass).

My invoice for the 50 percent down pay to play plan is dated 5/4/2007
... no word yet.

It's got to be real confusing, keeping track of who gets what when,
what kind of serial number, etc.....kinda like working in a bank
where all the deposits are made in pennies.

Its not the serial number, nor is 67 - since #67 went to Toby DD5FZ in
Munich Germany.

Don't you just love    http://www.zerobeat.net/mediawiki


I think this site by Thom & Don (sorry guys, you sound like twins!) is just
great for all info Elecraft (not just K3) and a great supplement to this
reflector.
I'm not suggesting we ask for the reflector to change, but for static
information like build problems and past experience, this will be a great
asset. Especially for people like Don who have so much experience to share
and only email to do it in the past.

Everyone in US, have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Maybe Dan and I could get jobs as Drive Time Announcers.....it's the
Thom and Don Show!

Thanks for the nice words....there are a few hard core folks who have
put a lot of time
and energy into both the wiki and forum....and it's nice to see that
it's a help to others.

Vic,

> it was ordered 4th of May
Before some of us here (me included) head for the nearest cliff can you confirm that your K3 order date
was actually the 4 May 2007.

Also, when did you receive your "order confirmation" email from Elecraft with the request for payment
etc.

On the face of it, it looks as if a batch of emails from Elecraft for orders around 2/3 May have either not
been sent out yet, or have gone astray.

73 to all

The flurry of posts about delivery, assembly lines, coulda/woulda
situations may serve a purpose....it keeps us busy while Elecraft is
busy trying to ship units.

It also reminds me of the Tom Swift series of books.  I once heard
that they were mostly written by ghost-writers....who were supplied
with the last sentence of the paragraph(s) before theirs, and the
beginning sentence of their assigned work.

Vic,
        Are you certain of these numbers?  Next Monday as a ship date for an
order made on May 4th just doesn't sound right.  I would have thought that a
May 4th order might be a week or two further down the road.  Mine was
ordered on May 2nd and I haven't received word that it was about to ship.
