I think the K2 that was reviewed in QST was around serial number 495. The
K2 hype was no-way near as noticeable as he the K3 hype. My thought is that
the ARRL has one now or getting one this month. The packaging of the test K2
and my K2 got mixed up and there was some sorting out to do. The
manufacturer did know which K2 was going to be the test radio for the QST
review. I waited until I had gotten my hands on a K2 before I ordered,
which must have been a little more than a year after orders were taken at
Dayton. Things were not happening nearly as rapidly with the K2 as they are
with the K3.
QST and the ARRL web publishing seems to repeat a good bit of information
seen on the QRP-L and Elecraft reflectors. My guess is they have it in the
queue. Because the K3 hype was on the reflector very early on.
Now does that change any of the action in the pool?

How about a pool?
My guess is the K3 review will appear in QST for December, 2008.
I'm betting they already have one or will have it shortly. I'm going to go
way out on a limb here. Put me down for July 2008 issue. :-)
Reasoning: There was way too much buzz after the K3 intro from the
contesting and DXpeditioning crowd for ARRL to wait months on end to get
one. This is not just another radio, and I'm sure the guys at ARRL figured
that out at a very early date.
