[Elecraft] [OT] Dayton- new hf rigs?

[Dave]

They had brochures on the 3000 but no radio on display. Looks like same size 
and form as the Icom 7600.

Kenwood had a mockup of the new TS-990. Back connections were covered and 
not visible. Front display was showing a photo and was not a working radio. 
According to Kenwood the hardware design is just about finished but firmware 
has a long way to go. They are hoping for FCC cert in August and shipping 
around November. (They didn't say what year!) Price is between $5k and $10k.

Flex is releasing the new 6500 and 6700 radios. Again, mockups and not 
operational at Dayton. Price on 6500 is $3900 and 6700 around $7k

Did anyone see or turn knobs on the proposed FTDX-3000?
Did Kenwood have the rumored new
Hf rig?

Thanks
