Hi,
Just quoting numbers I had seen on the reflector or heard from what I
thought were at least from somewhat qualified sources. Must be some
misinformation out there. Sorry if I mislead anyone....not intended. I'm
sure that Eric has a much better handle on it than myself.

Guys - We can't release actual numbers for competitive reasons, but I can
say that the numbers quoted below are incorrect.
We increased the first July-August production run above the numbers quoted
below.
Also, we are NOT sold out of the Sept-Oct production run. :-)

Michael,
The following has been gleaned from several sources over the last few
weeks.
The initial production run was upgraded from 200 to 220 and has been sold
out several weeks ago. That run is for July and August delivery. The
second run was also upgraded from 200 to 220 and has been sold out with
deliveries in August and September. I've not seen third production run
numbers but would expect them to equal or exceed each of the earlier runs.
Deliveries are said to be in September and October. I've seen/heard
information that indicates that run is going fast. So an educated guess
is they have sold well over 500 radios so far.
Looks like if you want a K3 for Christmas you should order soon.
Hopefully later production runs will be greater and Elecraft will catch up
by the years end. Due to long lead time on some custom parts a quick ramp
up of numbers may go slow.
These numbers may be way off. But, they are put togather from email on
the reflector and talking with Elecraft personel at Dayton.
