[Elecraft] KX3 and KAT500

[Keith Heimbold]

When I spoke to Eric at the Yuma hamfest two weeks ago today, I asked if my KX3 would be in my hands for my wife's and my babymoon to Aruba next month around the 6th of April. He said not likely.  

I ordered mine on New Year's day from what I recall.  Took me a couple days after it was made available for order  to decide if I wanted barebones or fully loaded KX3.  I ended up getting a loaded one. I am so excited and am also wondering when that bad boy will grace my presence.
