[Elecraft] Percentage of KX3 owners who bought a KXPA100

[Stephen Selberg]

Greetings,

I'm sure a number of people are in the same boat as me. I plan on getting
one but am holding off for now for a few reasons. 1) finances 2) letting
the bulk of the bugs get worked out 3) waiting to hear feedback from others
4) did I mention finances...boy diapers are expensive 5) didn't order one
initially due to the delay of order fulfillment  6) as you mentioned the 2
meter module, cant decide if I want that or the amp first 7) the xyl
factor... God forbid I buy more radio gear before buying her the extremely
overpriced purse that she wants...8) something at home always needs to be
repaired/replaced taking from the radio fund...

I'm sure the ratio will move up as time goes on.

Good luck with your surgery Jim. I wish you a speedy recovery.

73 Steve KS6PD
