Re: [Elecraft] K3 build rate

It looks like the delay between ordering and receipt has now 
dropped to just under 8 months (~7.9). I'm watching that 
number. It has to drop to 3 months by May, in order for me 
to receive mine as scheduled.

Remember too that a lot of the wait was for the first production units to be 
completed. There were several months when none were shipped but many were 
being ordered, so the backlog was building; now it's been reduced. Perhaps the 
publication of the reviews and the record-breaking results of Ducie Island (at 
the bottom of the cycle, too!) will generate huge numbers of new orders.

Meanwhile - where's that piggy bank?

[Elecraft] K3 build rate

Thanks for the update.  In round numbers, output now seems to be
around 200 per month, although Feb is a short month.  ;-)

For many, it must be like watching an old-fashioned egg timer - the
big pile of sand on top with only a few grains at a time passing
through the "waist" to exit at the bottom.  I am glad that I now have
mine, but I remember the long wait (8 months for mine).  It's a great
radio and once you get yours, the memory of the wait will begin to
fade.  But until then...it is tough while you're waiting.  Just
remember - everybody is staying in the queue for a good reason.  Hang
in there.
