Elecrafters:
This weekend at the Field Day site, the subject of the K3 came up and
there were several hams who had not heard of the K3 (hard to believe,
but true :-)). With respect to the "build or buy" options there were
some who seemed delighted that they could get one factory-assembled
and then there were others that who became enthusiastic when they
learned that the "kit" was a "no solder" kit which only required
mechanical assembly, alignment and testing. There was also one who
was sad not to have the opportunity to "melt solder."
So from this very restrictive sample, it seems that Elecraft has
ceretainly expanded their market base with the K3.
BTW, I'm purchasing the "kit." My friend John, K1JD, is working on an
incense with the smell of solder smoke that we can burn while
assembling the K2. ;-)
