[Elecraft] KX3 Battery requirements

[Bruce Beford]

I wouldn't make any bets on that timeline, Paul. I know the gang at Elecraft
will do their level best to get the KX3 out as soon as it's ready. Still, I
think your estimate of having one in October-November is somewhat overly
optimistic. It may be possible that you could have one before your February
DXpedition, but just that- possible. My guess is that with all the initial
demand, and ramping up of production, that the likelihood of the rank and
file seeing them in 2010 is slim. I think they will begin to trickle out as
late Christmas presents. (Just my view in my somewhat foggy, cracked and
chipped crystal ball...)
 
Still, good luck with getting an early order in during the ensuing mad rush!
