Yes, I totally understand. If I went to the Elecraft site today and wanted to order an MH3, it's on backorder. I get it. I would not be allowed to order it. You may be missing the point. Some of us have ordered and already paid for the KX2-shack-in-a-box which *INCLUDES* an MH3 microphone. In my case, in a month or so it'll be about 1 year since I've paid for this. I am not sure if I could've/would've not ordered the Kit or not if they had told me it would not ship complete, but it would've been nice to be given that option. As it was, it showed up incomplete. Seems like a small complaint, I know, but I've rec'd a number of private emails already from folks in similar situations, some not as lucky as myself (I own multiple radios). I've found in my life, usually "honesty is the best policy" and especially being a ham I believe "communication is key" (in life, business, etc.) Happy Thanksgiving everyone !

Before last Xmas I ordered a KX2 shack-in-a-box kit and rec'd it a couple months later(no complaints- I knew there was a small backorder), but there was no MH3 microphone included. (nor was it indicated on the paperwork that Elecraft even knew it was missing) I had to complain via several channels and then subsequent emails to Wayne told me I'd receive it at some point. Soon it'll be 1 year since I placed my order and still no mic. (and zero updates) Yes, it's very small potatoes and yes, I am a big fan of Elecraft equipment owning a multitude of your transceivers (K1, KX2, KX3 and two K3's), all in the shack here but when I see messages about K4's and KPA1500's and not even a single update to my private email (or publicly) about my microphone it just is upsetting. Like myself and others got lost in the dust but 'Hey, spend your hard earned dollars on these big ticket items y'all" I hope that makes sense. Sometimes it's the little things fellas.
