[Elecraft] A Bummer! Well, Sort Of!

[Dyarnes]

Hi All,

Last Saturday I got a notice from Elecraft that my KAT500 was "in the loop", 
and for me to confirm my order, which I did post haste.  Monday morning I 
got an auto shipping notice.  I thought, "Boy, that's fast!"  The tracking 
info said it would be here today.  Well, a package did arrive, from 
Elecraft, but it was the KXBC3, for my KX3, instead of the KAT500!  Shucks! 
Of course, I'm glad to have the KXBC3, but it isn't close to what I'm most 
anxious to have on the operating desk.  Sure wish Elecraft would put a bit 
more info in their shipping notices, like what it is that's coming!  I 
suppose that's too time consuming.

Anyway, guess I'll have a beer and get ready for the onslaught tonight! 
Halloween!  We tend to get lots of kids, which I don't mind.  The reason we 
get so many is that we live in a relatively "enclosed" neighborhood 
development, with just two ways in and out, whereas most of the other homes 
in the area surrounding us are scattered all over the desert.  So, lots of 
folks bring their kids here, from Lord only knows where, and let them do 
their thing!  A little unfair for us here in the neighborhood, perhaps, but 
hey!  It's for the kids!  I think I have about an hour and a half before the 
doorbell starts ringing off the wall!

Happy Halloween everyone!
