[Elecraft] Inventorying a K3/P3

[Bill Johnson]

Given what I have read on the reflector, try calling.  There are so may impatient dolts, I can understand there situation. All the stupid "when will I get mine" I am sure have bogged down their inbox.  Not to say phone messages aren't as well.  But who knows....

Hi Brian,

Thank you for the suggestions, and the tidbits of the additional steps for add on items like new synths, etc.  I have saved your email.

I have sent Elecraft three seperate email requests across three weeks, and gotten precisely zero replies from support at elecraft.com address...

Very dissapointing, not even an acknoledgment they got the mail...  It is like firing email into a black hole...

I just resent the 4th request, this time to sales, support, and webmaster in hopes I can get in touch with someone at the Elecraft!

I understand things are busy, and I understadn things are diffucult to to COVID, etc., but three weeks, and three requests later I am getting very frustrated.

73, and thanks,
Dave (NK7Z)

Evidence is a 1A sticker on the rear of the K3. 2. Add a capacitor to the KPA3 to eliminate fan noise pickup evident after the new synthesizers are installed. 3. Addition of a capacitor to the KBPF3 general coverage BPFs to extend coverage down to the 630 meter band. I’m sure there are others. See the mod instructions available on the Elecraft site if you go sleuthing inside the box. These are a bit inconsequential but add value to the K3.
