KX3 on its way?
8 May 2012 | by I opened my mailbox this morning to discover the email that hundreds if not thousands of hams worldwide have been waiting for – a shipping notification from UPS to say that a 5lb package from Elecraft is on its way!
A 5lb package from Elecraft? What could that be? Ah. it must be the KX3 I didn’t order.
That’s right. Didn’t order. I haven’t ordered a KX3! I’m not saying I’m never going to, but I am not even going to think about it until such time as orders are fulfilled off the shelf. At the moment I believe that the lead time for an Elecraft KX3 ordered today is about 4 months. These days I just don’t plan that far ahead.
I forwarded the email to Elecraft Sales in the hope that they can figure out who this notification should really have gone to and why it came to me. But for a brief moment this morning I thought this was going to be my lucky day!

Maybe you have a fan at elecraft that wanted to give you a present for all you fine work on this blog. That would be too cool…I know I enjoy following your work. Hope you are feeling better,

Julian,
I’ve been looking for that same e-mail everyday for months now!
Guess I’ll still keep looking.

Maybe it is your lucky day, or karmic payback (of a positive kind.)
What was the story?

So that’s where they sent it!
Just go ahead and forward it to me, and I’ll send you the shipping.

WOW, you get a KX3 and not even on “the list”! I guess I am on “the list”. I ordered mine Dec. 28 at 1717 EST. So, hopefully sometime soon!

Oh, well, I’m pretty certain it must be my KX3! At least, that’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it!
i think this might be a scam !?
if you have to pay a charge payment on delivery at the door.
we have scams over here in england.so beware , dont pay
in cash or by credit card . get back to Elecraft and quote UPS
reference number just to be safe.. and who knows you might be a
lucky winner of a free KX3……….. regards from england 73 john g4wqz
