Hello Drew, AF2Z I plunked down over $1300 for a deposit on my K3, but after waiting five months and then calling Elecraft they told me to wait another three months. That was a total wait of 8-months! At the five-month point I told Elecraft to cancel the order and send my money back. I then went out and bought an Icom 703+ and just love this little radio. It's no K3, but for less than $700 it's worth the money.
I still plan to buy a K3, but I WILL NOT WAIT MONTHS to receive it. Elecraft doesn't have their act together concerning the K3. This is from an op who built a K1, K2 and a KX1. I'm VERY disappointed in Elecraft selling the K3 before they were geared up for production. When Elecraft has a K3 ON-THE-SHELF I might buy one. 72, Ed, WA3WSJ ********************************************************** Yeah, that's right... most of us took a crash course in CW, learning it overnight. Then worked all band DXCC the next day. And we expect the solar flux to be at 300 in another week here or so. So where's our K3's? We didn't become ham radio operators because we like to wait around for stuff. No sir. 73, Drew AF2Z _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
