[Elecraft] Beta Testers Wanted

[Gary Hvizdak]

    We have completely revised our Companion Guide describing how to build a
rework-free "Plug & Play Ready" K2.  Instead of a dozen pages of instruc-
tions describing how to redline your K2 manual, our revised guide simply
shows you the resulting 16 pages of annotated assembly instructions.  And
it's color-coded by option, so you can pick-and-choose should you only
want to build your K2 with "Plug & Play Ready" support for some of the
options.  Beyond taking a fraction of the time to accurately transcribe,
your resulting annotated K2 manual will be much easier to follow, and will
require fewer references to the individual option manuals.

    Because this revised guide is so much better than the currently
published one, we are very anxious to make it generally available in time
for the holidays.  However before we do, caution dictates that it first go
through a beta test period.  If you would be willing to accept the trade-off
between far superior instructions, versus the uncertainty that goes with a
complete rewrite, then we request that you check out our new version 5
Companion Guide, at http://www.uncpbs.com/manuals/companionguidebeta.pdf

    In exchange for your participation, our only request is that you keep us
apprised of your progress, so we know as soon as it's okay to remove the
beta release label and add a link to the new guide to our Manuals webpage.
Beyond that, if you have any suggested improvements, your comments will be
most welcome.

73 & Happy Holidays,
