Hello All,
I have K3S s/n 10027. I have had it since July 6th and I am VERY happy with
the K3S.
It out performs any other radio I have ever used. I can't wait to get home
from work every day so I can
use the radio. The best Ham Radio purchase I've ever made!

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] New K3S
Yesterday we had the first K3S check in for the Elecraft CW Net.
Comparing K2s, K1s, KX1s, K3s, KX3s, and the new K3Ss is fun :) It is
hard to tell them apart unless the owner tells you which they are running.

I wonder if anyone has received a new K3S yet??
Hi Joe,
We have shipped a few dozen, but some have not been received yet, and
probably half were kits, which take longer to come on-line. Some of those
received have already been mentioned on this forum, or on the Yahoo group
(search for "K3S" in the archives). But only a small percentage of our
customers participate in the forum at any given time.
In addition to forum comments, the first customer to post an eHam review
of the K3S created a product category for it:
http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/12433
There are two reviews so far, both very thoughtful (and long -- proceed
with caution :)
We're of course very happy to see so many positive comments. There are
also a few minor negative points, typical of any product. We take these as
constructive input toward future improvements. One reviewer with a very
sensitive sense of touch (speculation on my part) commented that he could
feel the felt pad under the VFO knob. This pad is intended to create drag,
and the amount of drag is adjustable. But, haptics being in the fingers of
the beholder, I emailed him to discuss hypothetical alternatives.
I'm sure there will be additional postings and reviews soon. Meanwhile,
we're working out a few last annoyances in our shipping procedure in hopes
of shipping more quickly.
We'll also have a new firmware release for the K3/K3S this week.
