[Elecraft] Getting to know K3-859

[Dick Roth KA1OZ]

It's 0444 EDT and I think it's time to go to bed.  I'm just short of the 
first power on test and I'm going to get some rest before taking that 
step.  Tomorrow is another day.

I didn't realize that items of this quality were available to 
"consumers".  Fit and finish are remarkable.  There's quality in 
everything from button pushing feedback to structuring the assembly 
process.  I used to build some Heath and have written a few instruction 
manuals along the way and this instruction set is really excellent.

I have only hit one snag so far:  I received only 3 out of 4 #4 fiber 
washers and I was short 3 screws.  All but the washer were in the Spares 
Kit.  I'll be letting support know if or when I hit a road block.  So 
far...I'm having a whole lot of fun developing pride of ownership.

Good Night &
