[Elecraft] Contests and the K3

[Eric Swartz WA6HHQ - Elecraft]

Hi Ralph,

Thank you for the info. The more data we get the better.

By the way, we have a number of -very- active contesters directly 
involved with the company. Bob, K6XX, is one of our key engineering 
program managers  -he has a large number of K3's at his mountain-top 
multi-multi station near here and also used them when he competed at 
WRTC. (Half the radios at WRTC, over 48, were K3s :-)

Also, a large part of our field test group are high end contesters and 
DX'ers.

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
