[Elecraft] K3 internal connectors

[Mark E. Musick]

Hi Tom,
When I had K3 serial No. 3505 in for upgrades they upgraded it to the gold
pins. I asked the same question and was told it was somewhere between 4000
and 4100. They can't give an exact number due to some orders being kits
versus the factory assembled units.

Can anyone tell me at what point (Date-S/No.) Elecraft started fitting gold
flashed connector pins on the internal connectors? A member of our contest
group is interested in buying a used K3 and I have advised him not to get an
older one because of the connector reliability issues.

Thanks,
