[Elecraft] Dayton - Initial Reconnaissance

[Ed, W9EJB]

Just returned home from Dayton.  The only new K3 developments as reported by
Wayne are the new W2 wattmeter (~$240) and the 2 meter add on for the K3
(K144XV ~$300).  Eric indicated that the K144XV should be available by
August.  It will require an upgrade (actually a trade out) of the KXV3 for
another $40.  New versions, the KXV3A will only be available in the future.
Sorry about the guesses on the prices, they actually had the reall prices
listed at the booth.  I just have a bad memory.

I asked (very politely I might add) about the panadapter.  Eric said to
expect it by the end of the year.  It will not be cheap because of the
integrated color screen.  My sense, is about $700.  Eric said more than the
$300 - $500 price range which I guessed at.
