K3 Firmware version at time of shipping.

[Geoffrey Mackenzie-Kennedy]

Probably a daft question but am I right to assume that the version of
firmware supplied as part of a K3 kit purchased from Elecraft is the latest
released version existing at the time of shipping the kit, or is the kit
supplied with some early version of firmware which has to be updated as part
of the K3's 'alignment'?

You are right, it's the latest version available, Geoff.

As I understand it, the K3 is supplied with the latest version,
available at the time of packaging / shipping. But note that the
firmware is still in active development / maintenance, so you will
want to update it to get the latest bug fixes and enhancements.  If
only to verify that you can do it, while you have the manual in front
of you.
