[Elecraft] Elecraft[K-3] K144XV

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

We're shipping K144XVs.  :-) There are a lot of early orders as part of 
a very large backlog. We're working through confirming and shipping 
those right now.

The K144XV specific utility hasn't been posted because there is no need 
for it yet. We haven't released any firmware updates to the basic 144XV 
uC itself. (Its much less complex than the maionK3 code and has been 
very stable. ) The K144XV downloader will actually will be part of K3 
Utility under a different tab, since the K144XV is a K3 Option. We have 
the utility in use internally and are just making sure its ready for 
prime time before release. It will certainly be released before we 
release any code updates for the K144XV uC.

Most updates for the K144XV operation will be part of the regular K3 
firmware, (through normal K3 downloads from K3 Utility) since the 
overall operation of the K144XV is controlled from the K3's front panel 
uC. most feature changes will happen there.

73, Eric   WA6HHQ
