[Elecraft] K3 S/N 4904 QRV

[Bob Henderson]

I'm rather late coming to this particular party, as these days I mostly
operate with my home built Picastar transceiver.  Plans to activate T88ZM
and KH0/G3ZEM early in the new year, combined with a sense of foreboding
over the idea of braving the vagaries of world-wide airport security, whilst
armed with a home made electronic contrivance, have persuaded me to finally
take the plunge adding a K3 to my Elecraft inventory.

S/N 4904 kit including KXV3A and KPA100 arrived here yesterday morning.  I
had a thoroughly enjoyable day assembling the unit then running through
alignment.  The new baby finally hit the airwaves at 1545z in a 40m long
path QSO with VE6MRV.

I am absolutely delighted.  I now just await arrival of a 500Hz roofer from
Inrad.

Lisa handled my order placement with great charm and efficiency.  Elecraft
certainly delivers quality in style.

Many thanks to the Elecraft team.
