I built a K1 several years ago and like you would expect me to say I was
impressed with everything about the rig, building it, the documentation,
support, etc. For the past 13 years the 1000MP has been my main home station
rig.
Last year in Dayton I stopped by the Elecraft booth just to turn some knobs
since I didn't have the cash to get a K3 at the time. Eric was there and gave
me a great demo of the receiver. He had a little keyed "interferer" and showed
me how close he could get it to a desired signal - impressive. How great it
was to get to spend a few minutes not with some marketing guy, or a hired girl
handing out caps (although I always get one, figured I deserve it because after
all I DO own some of their rigs), but with the designer of the rig who not only
designs it but stands 100% behind it. I told Eric then that it was not a
question of whether I would get a K3 but when. So, that time is now, and mine
is on its way, somewhere out in the midwest on a UPS truck heading for NJ.
So Eric, I just want you to know that not only did I just order mine but my
friend who was with me at the time already got his. A lot of us believe in
what you are doing. Service DOES matter.
I'm looking forward to getting my new 10 watter on the air, and getting my feet
wet, and hopefully being able to contribute something positive to the reflector
from time to time
