K3 Production

Don Rasmussen
The K3 making machine seems to be in WARP drive, with
125 K3's delivered between mid December and Mid
January - increased to 175 K3's going from mid January
to mid February. What's most amazing about this number
is the quality and complexity in each box.

The head scratcher though, is that K3 #365 was ordered
May 3 (pre-Dayton), and K3 #407 is post Dayton,
ordered on May 24. Given that over 300 K3's were sold
the first weekend it was offered (April 27), it would
seem that Elecraft is well known and trusted within
the group of people that are previous owners of their
gear, but maybe not so much in the mainstream?

One thing is for certain, the wait time is coming
down!

Doing some CQWW tonight, N1MM fired up at 38,400 with
no problems at all, and the minor chore of throwing
together a patch cord and testing it was made SOOO
easy by the TEST function on the K3. The guys at
Elecraft are always a step ahead of me it seems!

Have ZM1 and KH6 sor far, so good... !

Thanks to all who took the time to work on the wiki. It gives me some
data to plot when my K3
will arrive! (I have nothing to do :)....)
