[Elecraft] KX3 Shipment notification

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Sure, but the "transceiver" goes way back into the 1930's, long before Art
Collins.

Many years ago, $/watt actually *was* a measure used in evaluating
transmitters [they were all either transmitters or receivers then, until Art
Collins invented the KWM-2].  Transmitters all sort of followed the same
architectural pattern and were not what you might today call "feature-rich."
"Press the key, make RF."  Bandswitching was a feature compared to plug-in
coils.  Menus hadn't been invented either.
