SHIPPING STATUS UPDATE

Don Rasmussen
Stan - it would take them longer at this point in the
K3 delivery cycle than it's worth to update more than
every 2 weeks and they've been fairly good about that.


At any rate, when did you order?

Maintaining their present breakneck rate, March will
ship orders placed in August and September, April will
ship orders placed in October and November, and May
should get December and January if the trends
continue. I'm not sure how May will be affected by
Dayton (biq squeaker there).  

I'd venture to say that in the rankings of SQUEAK at
elecraft, your signal was just above the noise. My
guess. ;-)

    We certainly don't hear the uproar about the late
updates that we did
just a couple of months ago. So that tells me that
there are either less
people waiting for K3s, or that the Europeans have all
gotten their K3s.

    Maybe if I stir the pot and make enough noise, we
will get some attention. The squeaking wheel gets the
grease.

    SQUEAK SQUEAK !!!!    HEY ERIC, WHERE IS THE
UPDATE????????

Re: SHIPPING STATUS UPDATE

srife
    Story of my life Don...just above the noise.  :-)

    The update was due this past Tuesday. That's when the last one ran out,
date wise. I ordered Oct. 13. I figure I'll get mine sometime in April. But
I, like others in the recent past, would like to see those updates on a
regular basis as the dates get closer to me. Five months ago I could have
cared less and resided myself to the fact that I would get a K3 some day.
Now I am getting ants in my pants.

Re: SHIPPING STATUS UPDATE

srife
    Larry, we may be in the next update, but if my luck holds out it will be
the one after that. So I figure: 2 weeks per update = 4 weeks...then two
weeks notice for the shipping and one week for the ACTUAL shipping. So MINE
could be 5 weeks away, or more likely 7 weeks. But I am hoping for 5 (maybe
less?).

K3 S/N 847 missed my birthday

Well my prediction of 6 weeks ago missed by 3 days.  I did the 3-hour
drive from Santa Rosa to Aptos this morning to pick it up in person.  I
actually got the "it's ready" phone call last week so I could have gone
Friday (my birthday) but schedules didn't work out.
