You must have missed the post this afternoon from Eric with the
subject 'Lead Time':

"We are continually ramping up our production rate on a weekly basis.
We are definitely producing now at a sustained rate higher than we
were 3-4 months ago, and our plans in place are for this to increase
another 50-75% over the summer."

Elecraft is (well ... was) a small company producing kits. How long
did it take to get to 1000 K2s? It looks they'll reach the 1000 K3
mark soon.
