[Elecraft] KAT500

I like the Elecraft products and also have several of their radios/meters/amp etc. However, I still find the marketing unsatisfactory and the hype over their products unjustified; the reflector serves to keep the prices inflated and promotes the products using the customers as unpaid salesmen.

	Sad you feel this way. I have been enjoying my KX3 for about a month now.

Yes, I waited almost 6 months from the date of my pre-order. I did the same

for my K3. Neither was "vintage" when received. Hardly. In fact even with

the early-adopter pre-order wait, there was still nothing on the market that

compared with either product. I also pre-ordered a KAT500 when Elecraft

announced they were comfortable enough with the design to accept orders.

When it arrives, I will enjoy that also.
