A lot depends on how well it decodes someone sending with his left
foot and only a few dB above the noise. But I hope you're right. CW is

It seems that the delays for the shipping of the much awaited K3 continue.
Would it be better for the folks at Elecraft to sit down, take a deep breath,
re assess what they really can achieve, and supply us all with a realistic
date for first shipments ?

Hi Bob,
I would rather be told that the first radios will not ship until say 6th
January 2008, rather than be continually disappointed every few weeks by

Poor Elecrafttrying to keep folks in forms sullies
Well perhaps you would like them to put you down for that date and let
someone else take your place in the queue? Do you really think it
would be preferable for them to keep the finished radios in a

a reason to complain?
It
Estimates promise dates.
Anytime someone is doing something new, producing an estimate of when it
will be done is tough. How do you know how long it will take to do
something you've never done before?
Then if you include the fact that your suppliers have the same problem
(unable to accurately
something or even
a complaint, just voice it out. Criticism could be sometimes constructive and
beneficial to the success of a company.

Well, as a European I don't mind delays right now... the dollar is weaker
