More history - Elecraft was formally created July of 1998. (We began working on
the K2 design well before that.)
We shipped the first 100 K2 Field Test Units January and Feb. of 1999. We took
orders for production K2 kits at Dayton in May of 1999.
We followed that with the K1, then the KX1, the K3, and most recently the KX3.

That's a pretty fanciful date to just pick out of thin air! :-)
There wasn't anything that was "Elecraft" 20 years ago. The K1 was shown
first at Dayton 2000, after which many of us ordered one. The first
deliveries to the mass unwashed customer base were made in October, 2000,
after a wait of more than five months.
I got No. 175 in November, 2000. Not 1994!
It's already been noted that the Sierra (also designed by Wayne/N6KR) came
out long before the K1...in fact...in 1994. So there's your 20 years!
