Waiting for a K3? IF you don't have a K2 don't rule it out before buying another manufacturer's radio. Fabulous rig and very pleasant to use! I only have two of them and am thinking of getting a K1 kit while waiting for the K3 production to get caught up. And the KX1 is a sweet multi-band radio which is really cool. (And, no I don't own or support Elecraft other than like the building and quality.) 72, Bill K9YEQ K2 #35, K2 # 5279, KX1 #35, Mini Modules, etc. -Original Message- Maybe a used Yaesu/Ken or Icom.

Get a used Orion I - a bargain at around $2K and you'll be able to resell it for little loss when your K3 is ready. 73, Barry N1EU Just wondering what Rig would be your second choice if you can't wait forever to get a K3? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/If-you-can%27t-get-a-K3-second-choice--tp14625490p14628145.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Re: [Elecraft] If you can't get a K3 second choice?
I made this mistake before with another manufacturer's new top of the line rig. I ordered it and waited and waited. The release date kept being pushed back and back. Finally my patience gave out. I cancelled the order and bought my second choice rig. I regretted doing it almost immediately. Even more so when my first choice rig started arriving in ham's hands. I eventually sold my second choice rig and bought my first choice. I'm not going to make that mistake again. I'm going to wait patiently for my K3, because it is really the rig I want, far above any second choice. Don't worry it won't really take forever to arrive. 73 Bob K4LW Just wondering what Rig would be your second choice if you can't wait forever to get a K3?

Re: [Elecraft] If you can't get a K3 second choice?
Larry, You did not state any parameters, so ... How about a K2 - they are shipping, no waiting. The K2 does have a top notch receiver, and right now only a few high end transceivers perform better (they also cost substantially more than the K2). The K3 wait will not be 'forever' - eventually the Elecraft folks will catch up with the orders and you can have a kit 'right off the shelf' - I would expect that to occur sometime in the 2nd or 3rd quarter of 2008, but then I do not know the details of the order backlog, so that is just a guess on my part. 73, Don W3FPR Larry Putman wrote: Just wondering what Rig would be your second choice if you can't wait forever to get a K3?
