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!
