Now for the real question about the K3!

k0wa@swbell.net
 
   
  OK....  Here is the real question.....
   
  How did you keep the K3 a secret?  Lots of guys working on the K3 project plus the testers.  How did you keep the secret?

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense devine?

Why would they tell us....obviously they will have other secret projects in the
future.

The real question is will they answer all the mai about the K3?

Lee,

It's called "successful redirection". I recall them asking about what we
would want in a "mythical" K3, all the while suggesting that such a radio
would never exists.

We made sure no one in the group has ever held, nor is known to want to
hold, public office.

And Wayne kept everyone real busy looking at design issues, plus some of us
also hold real jobs during the daytime, so no time to write blogs on
Elecraft development projects.  Both Lyle and I quit doing K2 mods several
years ago as the K3 design effort heated up, so maybe that was the best clue
that something was going on.
