measurements for the KX3's receiver

[David Burmaster]

Hi

does anyone know if Elecraft has loaned a KX3 to Rob Sherwood and/or ARRL's Test Lab for measurements on the receiver?

I just spoke with Rob about testing the KX3. He has had available an
early production unit for a while, but Elecraft says it needs to be
updated to the current level before testing.

Yesterday Elecraft sent me the invoice for the one I ordered and it
should be here early next week. I plan to assemble it and put it in play
in time for Field Day. Then Rob can test it if the other KX3 isn't
available in an updated state by that time.

My understanding is that the ARRL likes to purchase a regular
transceiver through normal channels to assure themselves that the
manufacturer does not "peak up" the unit just for the testing.
At least that is how it used to be - things may have changed.
