[Elecraft] K3 - New Radio Excitement

Let's face it.  For most of us, getting a new transceiver is a fairly rare 
occurance.   So when this does occur, there is a very pleasant period of 
excitement as we learn the ins and outs of our new toy.  I am certainly 
going through this now with my K3.  And because the K3 is a software defined 
radio, what makes this even better is that each time Elecraft comes up with 
a new firmware load, I kind of wind up with another new radio!!  I expect 
this to extend the "new radio excitement" for a long time to come.

Thank you Elecraft for such a nice product, for rapidly evolving the 
firmware, and for making the firmware update procedure essentially 
"stupid-proof".

Here's an idea - Why not offer new manuals for sale as a separate line item 
for those of us with K3s who wish  to occasionally purchase a new manual 
that has all the latest and greatest info?  Yes, I can download an updated 
manual.  But I'd prefer a nice two-sided color manual.
