Re: [Elecraft] K3 #266
Right, that blows my theory of 250 for the first prodn run! Beginning to look like 300 then.

Chris G3SJJ Remember that there are about 25 test K3's so the 1st production run could still be 250 units. 73 Rick Dettinger K7MW ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] K3 #266
My thought exactly - and off to the wiki to make a quick change on the estimate before anyone notices. ;-) Current swag, 275 deposit units and 25 without deposits - all shipped by month end. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. ;-) G3SJJ g3sjj at btinternet.com Mon Jan 21 17:53:03 EST 2008 Right, that blows my theory of 250 for the first prodn run! Beginning to look like 300 then.

Current swag, 275 deposit units and 25 without deposits - all shipped by month end. Maybe we can have section on the forum where folks can predict the delivery numbers by certain dates. I would think one interesting point would be when the last deposit paid unit ships...then the flow should be based on order date.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 #266
If I understand the system correctly, the first production run still has to include everyone who ordered in that time frame, but didn't place a deposit. Even when they hit May 14th or so of deposit orders (whatever the cutoff date was), they will then go back 3 weeks start shipping all non-deposit orders.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 #266
Well my order was in just about 4 hours before the official end of 1st run orders, so I reckon that will be a reasonable pointer. I think it is being prepared at this very minute, so your figure and timing for without deposits might be close. Guess what, we will have to do all this again if or when the sub rx actually happens!! Could just get my K3 in time for CQWW160 CW net weekend, now that really would be nice!

Re: [Elecraft] K3 #266
I think so. So Don's 275 plus 25 might be good. Yes, 14th May at 1800z was the originally announced cut off. Sorry for all the posts, I guess A) the excitement of my very impending K3 and B) the culmination of 3 months of watching serial numbers!
