[Elecraft] Dayton Update

[Mike Flowers]

Given the recent DXCC rule changes regarding remote operation, my guess is that the "...S Transceiver" has to do with direct internet connectivity and remote control.

Notice 2 particular things hidden...  the actual nomenclature of the rig..  with the exception of the rig..

But also...  the Frequency in Mhz.  That and the apparent rugged design..  

Im gonna guess VHF/UHF Sat rig?  There is a market gap after the discontinuance of the Icom rig that was replaced with the 9100.  Looking forward to knowing the real story..  I feel the drain on my pocket book already.

Also,

Didn’t Elecraft show off those two SS amps (precursors to the KPA500) at Dayton and they never did become products.

I wasn’t at Dayton for that amp display a number of years ago but there has been a lot of talk about it here on this news reflector over the recent years.

It may be a year before the new radio is available (unless it's a K3 with a new front panel).  If it's something major, it may not be available for another year, and you and your friend will enjoy the K3 while those who want the new rig are waiting (im)patiently.
