And that's the rub for every manufacturer and always will be.

Hi Kevin,
I'm not much of a CW guy so you haven't heard me on your net. But I really
enjoy your net announcements and recaps. It's obvious that you are in touch
with nature. Your descriptions provide me with a clear view in my mind's eye
of goings on in your surroundings. I look forward to
Hi Tom,
I doubt Elecraft will abandon the K3, or 3s. Why? All the owners of
K4's, (and any later rigs), would start to apply that to the "Do I need
to purchase a $5K radio, that will not be supported, after a new model
comes out", thought process... Hams have long memories... Elecraft is
Tom and all,
Elecraft still offers service on its legacy gear - KX1, K1, K2,
XVseries, so as long as repair parts are available, you can expect
service will be available for the K3/K3S in a similar manner.

I don't think that linkage necessarily holds water. I think it makes
sense for Elecraft to stop selling upgrades (after one last round) so
they can focus their attention on producing K4s. On the other hand,
maintenance issues may reflect staff shortages, but those are
remediable, and it
Given the termination of options and upgrades, I’m concerned that the same
thing will happen to K3/K3S service and repair. There are a lot of us here in
customer land that will need that capability well into the future, therefore
it’s loss or diminishment would adversely affect lots of folks.
