K3 build rate

[DOUGLAS ZWIEBEL]

Thanks for the update.  In round numbers, output now seems to be
around 200 per month, although Feb is a short month.  ;-)

For many, it must be like watching an old-fashioned egg timer - the
big pile of sand on top with only a few grains at a time passing
through the "waist" to exit at the bottom.  I am glad that I now have
mine, but I remember the long wait (8 months for mine).  It's a great
radio and once you get yours, the memory of the wait will begin to
fade.  But until then...it is tough while you're waiting.  Just
remember - everybody is staying in the queue for a good reason.  Hang
in there.....

Remember too that a lot of the wait was for the first production units to be
completed. There were several months when none were shipped but many were
being ordered, so the backlog was building; now it's been reduced. Perhaps the
publication of the reviews and the record-breaking results of Ducie Island (at
the bottom of the cycle, too!) will generate huge numbers of new orders.

Meanwhile - where's that piggy bank?

It looks like the delay between ordering and receipt has now
dropped to just under 8 months (~7.9). I'm watching that
number. It has to drop to 3 months by May, in order for me
to receive mine as scheduled.
