I'd like to echo Lew's experience on a K3 repair. I had a minor problem with
s/n 1417 that I could not track down despite many emails back and forth to
Gary, AB7MY. He even sent parts that I was willing to install myself. When
all else failed, I sent it to Elecraft for service. I sent the radio Priority
Mail on Tuesday, Nov 18 and on Thursday, Nov 20 I had an email saying the radio
was fixed and would be in the UPS system the next day! Unbelievable service!
S/N 1417 is back home now and doing great. Just one more reason the K3 is the
best radio around, you're buying a whole company that takes a personal interest
in each customer.
