[Elecraft] K3: mine is NOT on the way

[Randy Moore]

I haven't ordered my K3 yet (still saving up my pennies), but I follow 
every bit of info here religiously.  I really don't understand this 
competitive sensitivity to numbers of K3s ordered/shipped and who's 
haven't shipped yet.  Dave Benson (Smallwonder Labs) has for a long time 
listed every order not yet shipped on his website - by name and order 
date.  He does this even though he may be way behind in shipping.  It 
takes some time, but if Dave can do it (I think he's pretty much a 
one-man operation), I would think Elecraft could.  Perhaps they could do 
it by this recently discovered "invoice number" if that is something 
everyone gets when they order???  Would save a lot of anxiety among "the 
natives," and reduce traffic here.
