[Elecraft] KX3 guestion

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Brian, I think you are being confused by the way Elecraft works. They're not
like most other companies. With most companies what they release for sale is
"all there is". Unless the product utterly fails to perform it will see no
further improvements and changes. Improvements will appear in a new model of
the product in a few years that you can buy to replace the earlier model.

Elecraft continues to improve and enhance the rig you bought over its
lifetime, allowing you to have the latest technology in your existing rig.
That's why they encourage feedback about what customers perceive as issues,
making software and the occasional hardware tweaks to deal with them rather
than releasing a new model for you to buy. Existing customers get these
upgrades free or for a very nominal cost. What might appear as a stream of
bug fixes is actually a constant process of improvement that you don't
typically get from an equipment manufacturer.

At Elecraft, new models represent whole new designs incorporating new
technologies specifically designed to meet certain needs, while they
continue to tweak and enhance the existing rigs for their customers.

Wayne and Elecraft team . I have been holding off purchasing kx3 until  most
of the bugs both software and hardware have been worked out. Could some from
elecraft give a written summary of what's been fixed and maybe what might be
left. There has been so much traffic on this problem and that problem not
sure what's fact and fiction.

Thank you Brian Mcinerney WB8IDY
