K3 SN#000995 delivered today

I ordered my K3/100 kit on Dec. 24TH, 2007.
I received the FM, AM and 2.8 filters.
Backordered items: DVR, 2ND RX, 400Hz 8 pole.
995 is a real cool number and I'm a happy guy!

I had never thought about the quality of a serial number, but I
suppose having serial number 911 should give me pause.

Re: K3 SN#000995 delivered today

I got # 888. Pretty cool number, I think. Unfortunately it was erroneously
sent as a kit when I had ordered factory-built, so it's on its way back to
Elecraft where they will build and calibrate it in the lab, then send it
back to me. Looking forward to seeing it in a few weeks. (I'm a long-time
home-brewer since I was a kid, but my hands just aren't as steady as they
used to be, and was afraid I'd screw it up.)

Interesting that my 10-meter 10-X number (from 1973) is # 8889. I was
actually in line (completely serendipitously) to be issued # 8888, but it
turned out that that number had been previously issued, out of sequence, to
somebody's personal friend who wanted and asked for it.

Note RE # 666: Please note, FWIW, that infamous US Highway 666 in New Mexico
was finally redesignated as US Highway 491 last year by the US DOT pursuant
to continuing pressure from the Navajo Nation and other residents of Western
New Mexico.

Maybe Elecraft skipped # 666 ? :-)
