Just off the wire, there seems to be trouble in Aptos where according to unsubstantiated reports, Wayne has barricaded himself in with the first K3 lot (250?) and has refused to let any of them out, nor anyone in. With the official deadline for release coming in mere days, Wayne was quoted as saying they are "not ready, not ready, not quite ready".
His wife, kids, mother, and Eric have been outside with the authorities pleading to Wayne that he let loose with the hostages (K3's) and come out peaceably. By tomorrow morning it is expected that all the beta testers and the entire first order group will have arrived to join in the pleading. (Arrive early to ensure a good megaphone time). I'm taking names in support of Wayne from the elist which I'll attach to a flower arrangement w/box of chocolates along with a note emphasizing that all of us will be 100% accepting of his newest offering regardless of anything that's not yet complete in the firmware. What does everyone think, is this even something I can suggest, I mean somebody somewhere has to be griped about one thing or the next not being in the preliminary release, right? We need to be STRONG, especially now. I hate to go out on a limb here, but unless something is done quickly W might have to bury another cat and you know what that means. TIA for your support... dr. _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
