Preliminary Estate Sale Info-K7SVV (SK)

w7aqk
I've been asked by the widow of a ham friend, John McClain, K7SVV, to assist
her in disposing of several Elecraft rigs.  The information I have at the
moment is a bit sketchy, but I will be going over to determine more precise
info on all these radios in the next couple of days.  In any event, I
thought it might be appropriate to give advanced notice in case anyone
wanted to get his/her "oar in" on the sale.

What is/will be available is the following:

A K1--something in the area of a 13XX serial number.  I don't know for sure
if it is a 4 bander, but I think it is.

A K2--this has the ATU, SSB option, and 160 meter option.  It's a QRP
version.

A K3--this is an early serial number, 100 watt model, with ATU.  I need to
confirm what filters are included.  I'm pretty sure there is no 2nd RX.

You can pretty much assume that all of these rigs are "near immaculate".
John was a retired IBM tech, and an excellent builder.  He was also
fastidious about taking care of his equipment.  All of these items are
lightly used, as John was somewhat distracted by other interests, and didn't
really operate all that often.  In fact, I'd be surprised if any of these
rigs have more than 50-100 hours of operation--maybe even less!  He loved
putting them together, and owning them, but his "airtime" was pretty
minimal.

You don't need to contact me yet, unless you are particularly interested,
but anyone seriously contemplating any of these radios might want to watch
for my follow-up info.  I'm pretty certain these would all qualify as a very
good find for anyone genuinely interested.
