I have heard second hand that the evaluation has been done already and there has been some talks about it at ham fests. This information may not be accurate as I didn't hear the talk myself and the source could be confusing an evaluation of the K2. If so, the source was raving about how wonderful the K3 will be and has congratulated me on ordering one. I am far more interested in the K5EWJ evaluation than the ARRL evaluation even is the K5EWJ evaluation is less scientific. I just hope that the Order Date/Delivery Date is not a linear function! If it is, I have at least 6 months to wait.
Meanwhile, read this if you have not already: http://www.astromag.co.uk/k3/ This write up by G4AON is super good. It may not have as much test information as the ARRL reviews, but I think it is super good and after reading it, I placed my order on Dec 27.
