[Elecraft] K2OOL Beta Testing - end of day report

Fri Mar 14 15:33:04 2003

Great effort Tony...keep up the good work (btw I did just write all memory
channels for PSK freqs and after interogation...they came back on line with
them).  This is a slick little program so far....you deserve the
rest......go play ham radio with the K1 that'll keep you away from the
computer...log on paper don't do it on the 'puter save that for another day.
Cheers!

> Firstly, I want to say thank you again to everbody who has been

>
> A lot of progress since yesterday. Most people are now reporting that they

> Focus is now on improving quality, and eliminating quirks. So if you spot

>
> Just a reminder, if you download the latest version, make sure you delete
or

>
> I've had a question from a blind tester who has trouble reading the

a

> Lastly, one user has come up with a issue relating to an older firmware

> 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
