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.

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.

[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.
