[Elecraft] K3 Deposit Clarification

[G3SJJ]

Thanks Eric, that confirms what I thought was intended. Hopefully then I 
am in the first prodn run with deposit.

Not particularly interested in low serial numbers but wanted to get my 
hands on the best contest radio ever which is why I opted to pay the 
deposit for early delivery. The contests I had planned with the K3 in 
July, September and October weren't so important although it would have 
been a pleasant bonus, but Jan, Feb and March are very important for me, 
so here's hoping!
