[Elecraft] Availability of KH1 at major hamfests

2024-01-10 Thread David Wilcox via Elecraft
I will ask this again. I did not see a response earlier. I know the supply chain of the KH1 is limited right now. BUT will Elecraft be bringing any KH1s to Xenia just to sell there like they have other rigs in the past? By May hopefully the supply issue should be more stable. Dave K8WPE

I also bought my KX3/PX3 used from a nice ham in St. Louis through fleaBay. The units came in perfect condition packed in a Nanuck case. I bought the KXPA100 new, though. It’s a wonderful station, especially when working portable. I see a KX3 on fleaBay every week or two. The prices aren’t

The stock status on a new KX3 may be "backordered" but if you check QRZ or QTH you will probably find a KX3 every so often for sale. Sometimes with the panadapter and/or the KXPA100 if you are so inclined. That's how I got my station. Went the used KX3 route some years ago and never looked

The latest shipping status on the KX3 is “backordered”, and has been for a while. The only rig shown as currently shipping is the K3s. All of the amps are also on backorder. My KX3 is not for sale :-) Grant NQ5T > On May 16, 2020, at 9:58 AM, hawley, charles j jr > wrote: > > I think I

Like others have said on this reflector, the K4 is a new rig still in development and not generally available. If I had an antenna up, an itch to get on the air, and was just waiting for a rig, I would not wait for a K4. You might consider the KX3 line. If you are still OK with a soldering iron

I think I would get the KX3 which is in stock and maybe the KPA500 and KAT500. I’m not a 1500 watt guy. The KX3 can drive that to 250 watts or so...and get the K4 later. The KX3 would be a fun radio to keep. Chuck Jack Hawley KE9UW Sent from my iPhone, cjack > On May 16, 2020, at 5:57 AM,

Tommy, Please understand something about the K4 and availability - this is a rig that was announced this time last year (at Dayton Hamvention), that was still under design and development. At that time, I believe they anticipated the ship date to be in time for the 2019 holidays. Then, the

I always thought it would be a good idea to include a hunk of the correct solder as a regular part of each Elecraft kit. This eliminates the debate, the sourcing issues, the errors, and solves the flux questions (Rosin? Acid? No-clean? Organic?). Just a suggestion... 73, Steve aa8af

Guys, Got myself 10 euro's of the 'ole' solder. If I look back on my 31 years of being a ham, I am convinced that this will last me a long time, very long. My great great grand children will open an old junk box in 2050 and will wonder what that strange metal could be. Arie PA3A (vintage '57)
