Lisagram & "In stock by June" - really?

[DOUGLAS ZWIEBEL]

It is my forecast that delivery times will not be improved for
long...quite the opposite.

Once the "rest of the ham world" gets wind of the Sherwood (and
presumably closely matching ARRL) data, the K3 orders will go through
the roof (no pun intended).

I would expect orders to start showing up on an order of magnitude of
10 or more "real soon" after this information hits the streets and is
"confirmed" by famous Contesters and DXers...some of whom are taking
delivery now.  It won't take long for DX and Contest Clubs to
disseminate this information to their membership.

I would also expect the K3 base price to go up too (in other
words...if you're still sitting on the fence, put it gear NOW).

Sure hope the Aptos guys have a strong contingency plan for the deluge.

PS.  Glad I got my 2nd one ordered this past November!!!  Especially
glad since I have played with #295 this past weekend.  Can't get
enough!

Agreed.  I placed my order last Aug to get a K3 after the initial
production issues are solved but before the ARRL, Sherwood & major DXers
all get word out and create a huge wave of demand.

Time will tell if my timing was right one or not.

73 all!

Ordered May 16, 2007 with one half deposit.  Arrived Feb 8, 2008.... just like a baby, it took 9 mos and the second rcvr board is long off, still.  But, I am so glad to have my K3 now.  73Charles [hidden email] > Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2008 14:42:16 -0500> From: [hidden email]> To: [hidden email]> Subject: [Elecraft] Lisagram & "In stock by June" - really?> > It is my forecast that delivery times will not be improved for> long...quite the opposite.> > Once the "rest of the ham world" gets wind of the Sherwood (and> presumably closely matching ARRL) data, the K3 orders will go through> the roof (no pun intended).> > I would expect orders to start showing up on an order of magnitude of> 10 or more "real soon" after this information hits the streets and is> "confirmed" by famous Contesters and DXers...some of whom are taking> delivery now.
