Look at the post immediately preceeding yours, it's
from a -verry- savy Orion user that sold it and now
waits for K3.
I see some others on this page as well, same deal.
To answer your Q, I'd say as often as anyone opts for
immediate Orion over a K3, there's at least one
selling his Orion and waiting for a K3.
Your buddy should have bought used. ;-)
[Elecraft] Wonder how often this is happening ....

This from a long time 0-land friend who's had a
borrowed K2
that I've been "baiting" with all the glowing K3
reports from the
reflector;
"...and, I might as well own up to it. I got
impatient waiting
for the K3 and now have a new TenTec Orion II in
transit
somewhere..."
I don't know if he had a order in place and cancelled,
and his
purchase of the Orion won't impact Elecraft ....
they'll sell all
they can produce for a long time ... but I'd obviously
rather see
him with a K3.
