K3 shipping

[Vk2NU]

Hi All,

Sorry to add to all the mail, but I see there appears to have been changes
to latter production runs of the K3’s, as per the shipping schedule page.

<<< New K3 (3rd Pr. run) orders received after Oct 1st are scheduled for
shipment in early January. >>>

I assume by this that runs 1 and 2 have been made bigger, as from memory, I
was in Run 3 when I ordered back in mid-June.

Apologies if I've missed something here, but can't remember reading anything
about this ??

Cheers

David, Vk2NU

I placed my order in late Sept.  That puts me squarely in the 3rd
production run but prior to the Oct 1 date.  Could it be that they're
saying only orders after Oct 1 are scheduled for early Jan but earlier
3rd run orders are still targeted for Dec?

I think there is a LOT of stuff to happen between now and then.  The
prediction of when they will ship is a lot like the weather report here
in the eastern USA - wishful thinking.  I'm going to sit patiently and
wait for my K3/10.  I'll have a lot of fun with my K2/100 in the
interim.  If some extra money appears, I'll probably change my order to
a K3/100.  Eventually a box will appear and my fun will shift.

Until then, I'll continue to watch the ship predictions knowing that
they are only rough estimates, not promises, and that they are affected
by some elements completely out of Elecraft's control (much like the
weather).

73 & Cheers!

No, it say's ...
"New K3 (3rd Pr. run) orders received after Oct 1st are scheduled for
shipment in early January."

If you placed your order in Sept, that puts you in the 2nd run and you
should get yours sometime after 12-Nov. What makes to think you are in the
3rd run?

At the time of my order, 1st and 2nd runs were sold out.  That told me
my order was 3rd run.

I think all it's saying is that orders after Oct 1 are scheduled for
shipment in early Jan.  I don't think it is saying anything about orders
prior to that which leaves lots of room for speculation.

Fun, fun, fun LOL!
