Not yet, but probably before year end. We want to see our final production parts price quotes and production parts lead times finalized before setting the price and order date.
We also have to complete the FCC part 97 self certification submittal and get the subsequent approval. We are working on that now. That takes 30-60 days. For the FCC test data, there is nothing really difficult. We just have to present test data showing that the amp: 1. Has no more than 15 dB of gain. 2. Does not amplify between 26 and 28 MHz. (We use an internal freq counter for auto band switching to to handle this requirement.) 3. Meets the normal part 97 spurious levels for harmonics etc, which it easily exceeds. Plus we submit a bunch of additional docs, including a preliminary manual, block diagram, schematics etc. Lots of fun! :-) We'll certainly post here when we open it up for orders :-) We will not do that until we are confident of both the cost and the production ship date. 73, Eric www.elecraft.com On 10/18/2010 9:27 AM, Doug Faunt N6TQS +1-510-655-8604 wrote: > So, when can we order one? > 73, doug > > Date: Mon, 18 Oct 2010 09:24:19 -0700 > From: "Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft"<e...@elecraft.com> > > We're shooting for first regular production in Feb.
