[KX3] Serial No. 2148

[Phil Hystad-3]

Serial 2148 of KX3 arrived by UPS today.  Unboxed (just outer box) and already took errata sheet to update assembly manual.  But, still have to do inventory.  I am curious on whether I got the battery charger and real time clock.  I had heard they were back ordered.  It is listed on my order sheet but no notice of anything on backorder so I guess I have the battery charger and real-time clock option.  Yes, got to get to the inventory.  Unfortunately, that will be tomorrow night.

A lot farther from California, but just 8 numbers apart from you. Kit
#2140 was shipped Friday Oct 5 by US Post Express and was in my hands
yesterday afternoon Oct 10. It took less than 4 hours to clear customs,
and I could collect it at my friendly neighbourhood store the following day.

(Most post offices in Norway have been closed, and replaced with a much
larger number of postal desks in stores. UPS style truck deliveries to
residences are possible, but uncommon, as it's a lot more convenient to
pick up a parcel at the store than to make sure somebody is at home to
receive it.)

All that remains to be done is to connect the two halves of the shell.

You are lucky, S/N 1977 took 5 days to get from the US to the UK and
another 9 days to clear customs and be delivered.  Worth the wait
though!
