[Elecraft] K2OOL Beta Testing - end of day report

Beta Testing - end of day report

Folks,

Firstly, I want to say thank you again to everbody who has been
participating.  It warms the cockles of my old heart to think of the help
and persistance that has been forthcoming!

A lot of progress since yesterday. Most people are now reporting that they
are getting the right sort of reports out of their K2.

Focus is now on improving quality, and eliminating quirks. So if you spot
spelling errors or find a setting missing from K2OOL's reports, please let
me know - but please send a bug report form and the dump as well.

Just a reminder, if you download the latest version, make sure you delete or
uninstall the old versions. Some people have been downloading the latest
version and running the old version!

I've had a question from a blind tester who has trouble reading the
documentation. It is not much use to him, as the documentation relies
heavily on screenshots. Are there any volunteers around who can help draft a
text-only verion? I'm happy to maintain it once written, I just don't have
the time to write the first version.

Lastly, one user has come up with a issue relating to an older firmware
release. K2OOL gets confused and stops if it encounters an out of date
response from the K2  when checking AGC. This may affect others, but I do
need to see your K2dumps so I can work around the problem.

Final Final, I'm going to have a rest this weekend from K2OOL. After writing
5000 or so lines of code over the last two weeks, I'm going to chill out. I
might even use my K1 - I've forgotten what it looks like! So If I don;t
respond to any queries over the weekend, don't worry, I haven't skipped
town, I'm just chilling!

Thanks again!

Regards,

Tony
