[Elecraft] K3: Hardware changes
My, my... Here's what I propose. All you folks that are disappointed that there may be a change in their K3, please send Lisa an email and ask her to put your order on hold until the K3 stabilizes. I would love to get bumped up in the queue. Further more I hope you never get your K3. Why, because I hope it never stabilizes. As the K3 'product line' gets fleshed out - you know, things like panadapters, linears, ??? - there will likely be lots of changes. If this is 'scary, if the changes are kept 'secret', then I guess you can wait for the K3 PRO 4, or the K3 Mark 7G3. Secret' is what YaeCOMWood does! Now, lets all get back to discussing important things, like the K3 color.

While there are several factors at play here, two of them are the possibility of getting possible-maybe-soon-to-be-incorporated mods plus the desire to allow others to get their rig just a tad sooner. Now, mind you, there is no official talk of any modifications, and I seriously doubt that these factors were major in his decision, but the idea of waiting a few weeks so you can get a rig that is current is apparently not crazy. When I get my Lisa-gram I have no plans to tell her to wait. - Keith N1AS - - K2 5411.ssb.100 - - K3 Wave 3 - ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

My, my ... perhaps the quickest way for you to jump up in the queue would be to buy a K3 that has already been shipped...would you pay a premium price to have it very quickly? The fact that it would have none of the mods shouldn't cause concern...since the mods are all easy. 73 k3hrn Thom,EIEIO Email, Internet, Electronic Information Officer www.baltimorehon.com/Home of the Baltimore Lexicon www.tlchost.net/hosting/ Web Hosting as low as 3.49/month ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] K3: Hardware changes
Aren´t we back in low S/N discussion? :-) I suppose if there will be something really relevant, repeatible and tested then it will be published. (I mean all 3 parameters as TRUE) But not having K3 yet my optic can be little bit fuzzy :-) 73! Lexa, ok1dst Darwin, Keith napsal(a): -Original Message- From: Bill Coleman N2BC My, my...
