Hi all,
I have tried to stay out of the noise on this but I felt I had to comment.
I know the delay in the 2nd Receiver is frustrating but I think the fact 
that one of the owners of the company will mail the list to say that 
they are reworking because they are not happy with the result is 
fantastic!  It would have been so easy to simply release it 'as is'.  
However, they have decided it is not up to the standard they were 
looking for.  I cannot think of another company so committed to 
quality.  I would much rather wait and get a great product.

On the subject of the Omni VII, in my opinion it is not an Omni at all, 
it is a Jupiter.  VHF first IF etc.  The Omni VII was a far better radio 
IMHO.  You may have different opinions of course :-)

I am sure if the gentleman who is thinking about cancelling his K3 order 
were to ask, there would be plenty of people looking for his place in 
the queue ;-)

73 Ian
