[Elecraft] K3 by June?
Greetings everyone, I just ordered my 1st HF radio the other day, (K3) and I was told that the expected ship date would be June. (4 months out) After reading numerous threads on this mailing list about people receiving their units 8, 9, 10 months after placing the order, it's hard to be optimistic that I'll actually see my unit in 4 months. Does anyone think that this is a realistic date, or will I most likely be waiting 8-10 months? Has Elecraft ramped up their production at all recently to be able to get these units out the door faster?

[Elecraft] K3 by June?
Does anyone think that this is a realistic date, or will I most likely be waiting 8-10 months? Bill, Nobody knows how many K3's have been ordered, but we do know that they shipped zero K3's from May to June, a few K3's in July working up to 125 K3's from mid December to mid January, and 175 K3's mid Jan to mid Feb. Their proces has been refined and they know what to expect in the way of turnaround from their vendors by now. So it may be sustainable at the present rate, maybe even improved. http://www.zerobeat.net/mediawiki/index.php/K3_Serial_Numbers My guess, June is optimistic - keep an eye on the wiki and you will see precisely how much shorter the wait is getting over the next few months.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 by June?
As you stated, it depends on how many were ordered over the past 6 months or so. It appears they would be able to produce about 700 more during the next 4 months.
