[Elecraft] Delivery and Crabbing

I was pondering how much the K3 delivery guessing game is like crabbing.

With only one crab trap....you can get a rough idea when your basket 
will be filled....as each time you life the trap up, you can
see if there are any crabs in the trap.

When you have more than one trap, it's harder...since you have no 
idea how many crabs, if any, are in the other trap(s).

And so, in the K3 world....are we dealing with tested and aligned 
modules that only go into the kit trap for shipment, or are there two 
traps....one for kits and one for finished units?

Of course around here there are high volume crabbers....we use trot 
lines....long lines with bait at intervals...and you simply work your 
way down the line with a net.

Are K3s steamed or boiled?  Does Elecraft have it's own spice mixture 
or do they use off the shelf stuff?

crabs will soon bury down in the mud.....may have to earn some money 
erster tonging.
