K3 ..what production run is currently being shipped?

[Don Rasmussen]

Serial numbers of units shipped and reported by their
owners on the reflector are shown here:

Only under the most favorable scenario would second
production run units ship before year end 2007.

You won't know how many units can be or are being
shipped in a week until they show up with their new
owners. Seems to be running at about 25 lately but
they don't ship every single week.

It appears we're still in the early ramp up, but the
units are being received in excellent shape and no
delays at all in resolving the rare issue.

Does anyone know if production run 2 is shipping yet
for the K3?
 
I wonder how many K3's can be shipped per week?

Looking at the wiki, http://www.zerobeat.net/mediawiki/index.php/K3_Serial_Numbers, it appears to be about 25 per week, and is accelerating as time goes on. They were at the half-way point of the 1st run on about Nov. 28. Depending on the acceleration rate, that implies a projected wrap-up of the 1st run in the 2nd-3rd week of December. Of course, it's only a SWAG as far as the acceleration rate goes ;-)

I ordered on April 30, with no deposit, and expect to get a notice in a couple weeks, and hopefully a shipment before the end of the year. If I had only had the foresight to make a deposit, I would have had mine long ago ;-(

I'm eager to get mine hooked to my panadapter prototype ;-)

I would guess not very many, judging from the serial numbers being
reported here occasionally as they are received in the field. 117 the
other day is the highest SN I can remember.
