Elecraft moving this week to larger quarters

Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ
Administrator
Thank to the huge response by our customers this year (on the K3 and all
of our other products) we are moving the company to a larger facility.
2x the space for about the same cost as where we are now. (This is a
great time to negotiate for commercial office / R&D / mfg. space..)

We will be moving Thursday and Friday this week (and through the weekend.)

Please give us a little extra time to respond to emails and tech
support/parts requests for the next several days. Our sales department
will be 100% available for email and phones both Thursday and Friday.
Our tech support group will be on-line for email the whole time and
available on the phone for some of Thursday, but not Friday. Of course
the web page and order form will be 100% available.  Any calls or emails
we don't immediately respond to will be handled first thing next week.

We hope to be up and running full steam this Monday, Nov 2. :-)

Here's a picture of the new building:

Super. Well deserved. Thanks for the excellent and rapid service your company provides.
But how did I get so lucky to order the accessories for my K2 last week without knowing you would be moving? Stuff should be here tomorrow.

Regards and best of luck in your new facility,
Chuck, KE9UW

We'll be shipping tomorrow, but not Friday.  Hard to ship when
everything is on moving trucks. ;-)

Monday we'll be shipping as usual.

Hello Eric,

Congratulation!!

Again, classic business school successful case.  A company with stable income and innovative products now takes the opportunity in the downturn to negotiate a good commercial due.

As a facilities manager / chartered surveyor by profession, as a matter of curiosity,  could you please advise me what % of rent / price reduction has been for the past 18 months in your locality.  From your message about the relocation, it seems that the rent / price drops substantially.

I thought it was when I ordered the autotuner and then the serial port option (almost just to fill up the hole).
