[Elecraft] KPA500 Kits

2011-06-15 Thread Mike Fatchett W0MU
I hate to be a bother but is there any status updates on when the kits 
will start shipping to those not field testing?

[Elecraft] KPA500 kits

2011-06-07 Thread Jerry T. Dowell
Just found out that my kit has not shipped. False alarm. I added an item to
the order and was sent a copy of the revised invoice, which showed a
shipping date of yesterday. Indeed, no kits have shipped yet. Sorry for
raising false hopes!

[Elecraft] KPA500 Kits

2011-06-07 Thread Jerry T. Dowell
I ordered about 2 hours after the window opened online also. No tracking
number was given with my confirmation, and my debit card has not been
billed, so perhaps the fat lady has not sung yet!

I was told that I was #40 in line and I ordered two hours after it became
available on line.

Elecraft is a small company -- they are my neighbors, including some of 
their employees. They have always had the top priority of doing it 
right. From what I can see by watching this reflector, they're currently 
making sure that the building instructions make sense by having a few

All,

I would rather not hear anything than have them telling me once a week it will
be next week and repeating that each week.  It's better to be silent than give
out bad information.

I was sent an email after my last inquiry that kits would be shipping 
last week.  They didn't say they were just going out to field testers 
though.

I also don't mind waiting for them to make sure everything is right.  A 
bit more communication in the way of shipping updates would be helpful.

Jim,
I agree with you, I'd rather have it right than right now.  But it's easy to 
put an update on the shipping status page saying that delivery is delayed.  It 
could be a supplier issue or correcting the manual or just being overwhelmed 
with orders.  No problem at all, like I said, I waited 5 months for the K3.  
It's not the delay, it's not the not knowing that I mind.

Elecraft is a small company -- they are my neighbors, including some of 
their employees. They have always had the top priority of doing it 
right. From what I can see by watching this reflector, they're currently 
making sure that the building instructions make sense by having a few

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Kits

2011-06-06 Thread iain macdonnell - N6ML
The first kits went out to field testers last week (or so). They're
now providing feedback on the assembly-from-kit experience (we saw
W0YK's report). One might speculate that the final manual printing is
awaiting incorporation of that feedback. or perhaps they'll just
include errata with the kits that ship to the rest of us...

I suspect the delay is the printing of the assembly manual.  When you see the
word PRELIMINARY removed from the manual at the link below you will start seeing
them ship.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Kits

2011-06-06 Thread Rob May

I don't think anyone has received a kit or even shipping confirmation.  I 
really wish Elecraft would give a realistic ship date instead of stringing us 
along.  I don't mind waiting, I waited 5 months for my K3, just tell me a 
realistic date.  I ordered my kit early the first day that they were offered 
and no word yet.  Eric, just throw mine in your bag and bring it to Hamcom, 
I'll meet you at the Elecraft booth on Friday.  :)

Has anyone received a kit or shipping confirmation on kits?  The website 
says they would be shipping last week.

  We're beginning to ship KPA500 kits this week, but we have hundreds of 
  orders that came in during the first weeks. It will take us into July to 
  test and ship all of these.  We'll notify everyone as their amp kit 
  comes up for shipping.
