[Elecraft] KX3 kit shipping estimate

[Edward R. Cole]

The assembly manual has just been released,  We can hope KX3 kits 
will begin shipping.

I skimmed thru the assembly manual and does not look too difficult 
after assembling a DEMI 432 MHz transverter and only 18-page, 84 step 
manual and about 89 components which about 50+ were sm.  It took me a 
leisurely week to complete.

Since I ordered on 27Dec 3+ hours after the start, it's obvious those 
that ordered assembled radios days later than kit orders are getting 
earlier delivery.  Hopefully, this will change fairly soon.

I was so stoked to see that there was an order on the list that said 
his / her order date was Dec 30th unknown time. That is a big jump. I 
ordered mine on the 31st so I got to be getting close. Very excited 
as this will be my biz travel radio. Now need to find a good super 
ultra penultimatr portable Yagi for 6m that can fit in a standard 
pelican case.  Any ideas?
