We expect to receive a few "residual" 700 Hz filters from INRAD in the next week or two. We've already contacted everyone on our waiting list, and we've also posted a message about the filters on our "700 Hz Filter" Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/700.Hz.K3.filter
HOWEVER! PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR WEBSITE STILL STATES THAT THE THIRD PRODUCTION RUN HAS SOLD OUT! Most likely, these extra filters will sell out before I can update our website, so for the moment, I'm just going to wait and see what happens. If you want to get one of these residual 700 Hz filters, versus probably having to wait until 2014 for the next batch, then please register via our "preorder waiting list" page at http://www.unpcbs.com/list/ -- BEING CERTAIN to specify the quantity you wish to purchase. Ken or I will contact you to let you know whether or not you made "the cut". If you did, we will request your paid order within 24 hours. If you didn't (make the cut), then you'll have the option of cancelling your preorder, or waiting until we have sufficient interest to commission the next batch; which might take anywhere from two to eight weeks. --- - - - --- If you are not an extreme CW contester, then you might be interested in our new 700 Hz "slideshow" page, (still under construction). If the saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" is true, then this new page ought to be worth five thousand! See http://www.unpcbs.com/filter/slideshow/ Since this page is still under construction, your feedback right now will be extremely helpful. However, the page is still lacking any text, so it may make more sense after you've read the following passage ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Band conditions permitting, many CW operators prefer a 600 to 800 Hz passband setting. They find the default (norm) 400 Hz width too "constricting" for scanning the bands. Kind of like trying to view the world through a drinking straw, while riding a bicycle! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TNX & 73, Gary KI4GGX (webmaster) P.S. The scaling of the slideshow images is proportional to the measured widths of all but the 500 Hz filter. The 500, is an average of the 1000, 700, and 400 Hz filter "deltas", and probably to within plus or minus 3%. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
