I've been as guilty as many others complaining about waiting for their 
K3's but I have mine now.
I've ordered and paid for my 2nd receiver and digital voice module and 
now it's going to be delayed.
I can be patient as I know it will be well worth the wait. The K3 has 
exceeded my expectations by at least 50%.
It leaves my K2 and my Omni 6 opt3 for dead on receive and I've had so 
many complimentary audio reports its downright embarrassing !
I still cant get it to talk to DRM780 but HRD works great as does 
Omnicat and trx-manager using the K2 settings.
To all those out there who insist on knocking Elecraft for trying to 
give us the best radio in the marketplace I would ask, if you want a 
Rolls Royce you would be prepared to join the 2-3 year waiting list , 
wouldn't you?
Incidently it seems the vast majority of those complaining about all 
matters Elecraft appear to be " poms " ( or " limeys" for your side of 
the pond )
As a former "pom" , now a true blue Aussie, please be patient and it 
will be worth it, dont earn yourselves that well known Aussie 
expression  "Whinging Bloody Pom " !!
