[Elecraft] K3: prod run #1 size

[Brett Gazdzinski]

I think you may be wrong in expecting it before the December
holidays, I am in the first run and figure I might get mine just before
that.
Ordered May 2nd and paid the deposit, and so far I have heard nothing.
After the email arrives, its 5 to 10  business days or something before it
ships,
then there is the wait while its in transit.
That could be 15 business days after I get a mail from Elecraft.
That could be Dec 15th for me, if I get the Email this Monday.

Must have been something selling 200 (or more) radios in the
first 2 or 3 days!

I got to wonder what the timeframe is when they will get out of battle mode
at Elecraft, first there was the anouncement of the K3 (rush of orders),
then
some details come out, and the 'thinkers' order a bunch, then the reviews
come out, another rush of orders, then maybe the US dollar will fall some
more
making a full K3 cost about 20 euros or something and another rush....
