[Elecraft] Some Good News and Some Bad News

[David Yarnes]

I'm in Ventura, CA tending a sick brother in the hospital.  Looks like I'll 
miss Thanksgiving at home.  But I talked to the XYL yesterday, and a package 
arrived at home.  Guess what!  My K3 arrived!  What's strange is that I did 
get a preliminary message about my invoice, but no message saying it had 
been shipped.  But I've been having horrible problems at this motel with my 
email.  I could receive, but not send emails.  I won't even describe how I'm 
sending this--I don't understand exactly why it seems to work, but it 
apparently does.

Anyway, I have no idea what my serial number is, as my XYL couldn't find 
anything that seemed to resemble it in the box.  We were both afraid to have 
her dig through it very much and maybe lose a part or something.

Another "good" thing--she saw the enclosed invoice and assumed I only spent 
around $1400 for the radio!  That was the balance due!  I'm not sure I will 
tell her the real number!

Oh, and one more good thing--yesterday just happened to be my birthday!  Now 
how did Elecraft know to have that K3 hit my front porch on that day??? 
Wayne and Eric are very clever, but I didn't realize they were that clever!
