[Elecraft] K3 STATUS

[Darwin, Keith]

It is unfortunate that those of us who ordered early, expecting a
delivery in July, didn't get a rig when we thought we would, or even
when the updates said it would be finished.

But I believe that is the ONLY thing that hasn't been according to plan.

- Price has not changed.

- Performance has been as good or better than promised.

- Quality is as promised if not better.

- The order of delivery remains constant.  The ones who ordered first
get their rigs first.

I've worked in engineering too long.  I know that you cannot believe an
engineer when he gives you a schedule.  Sorry, but we engineers are not
good at it.  Elecraft is doing their best and fortunately for us, their
best means we get a great performing radio that is a great price.
Personally, I've taken every schedule from Elecraft with a large grain
of salt, thus keeping my expectations rather low.
