Again, the point is whether changes have been communicated. Those who wish to postpone/cancel/whatever would then be in a position to make that decision. Let me provide another example: The 1 PPM KTCXO3-1 is currently available and offered for sale. I included one with my order on June 18th 2007. It was represented as available at that time, too. As I was assembling my K3 last weekend, I was surprised to learn that, even after all this time, the firmware for the KTCXO3-1 is not available. No mention is made of this at Elecraft's web site, yet they still offer the KTCXO3-1 for sale. Wouldn't it be more, shall we say "honest", for lack of a better term, to NOT offer the KTCXO3-1 for sale until the software to utilize it is actually shipping? Barring that, perhaps a note next to the KTCXO3-1 on the ordering page, advising of the firmware status would be the "right" thing to do, so folks aren't spending $100 for something they can't use? Same kind of thing. Ben Franklin would have understood. He's my fav Founding Father. I read someplace the the other Founding Fathers wouldn't let him write the Constitution, because they were afraid he'd slip a joke or two in there! My kind of guy. :-) 73, Steve NN4X _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
