That's still extremely frustrating for even those in the "second batch" who ordered based on projected delivery prior to the end of November. If all of the first 200 - 250 will not be out until the end of the year, that means those at the end of the second batch may not even see their radios in time for ARRL DX much less CQWW CW as originally stated (25 per week, 200 - 250 per batch => late February or mid-March to the end of the second run). I've stayed out of the delivery discussions to this point but it looks to me like the current "New K3 orders received after Dec. 5th are targeted for late Feb. delivery." projection is probably overly optimistic ... and this doesn't even address the second receiver or FM filter schedules that seem to have slipped even further. > I don't know how many are in the 1st batch, but most have > figured it is less than 250. Most were counting 200 based on the "low serial number" and deposit discussions. 73, ...
