[Elecraft] My KX3 shipping calculation

Joe,

I would believe (based only on guess, and no prior knowledge) that the 
number of orders for the KAT500 are much smaller than for the KX3.  
While the KX3 "natives are restless", I would think that once the KAT500 
starts shipping, the projections will be much tighter than for the KX3 - 
just due to the relative volume of pending orders.

The KAT500 does not have a "tracking spreadsheet" on a Yahoo Groups 
forum, so I have no data regarding time of the orders and ship 
conformation emails and delivery times.  That spreadsheet has given me 
the basis for the numbers I used -- the internal Elecraft information 
may be different.

73,
Don W3FPR
