[Elecraft] N1MM Logger and the K2

[Don Nesbitt]

That's great news Ken - thanks for sharing the Alt-'  to cycle through the 
filters with FW0000; - that's a neat trick that ought to be included in the 
help files!  The more I use N1MM the more impressed I am with it's 
versatility.

I've been following your posts on the N1MM group reflector with the notion 
of getting in touch with you when I get another K2 so I can give the SO2R 
setup a try - 'course, it's a pretty sure thing that I'm not coordinated 
enough to pull it off!  See you in the contest.   73 -- Don N4HH
