[Elecraft] K3 F/W versions...just curious

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

Are we?
I believe we are asked to remove unnecessary quotes of previous posts  
on the same subject - ie, don't include reams of mail trail. I have  
had a number of people comment privately from this list that they  
enjoy the signature at the end of my mails, you are the first to  
complain (after I've been doing it for a year). I agree that one is  
rather long, but it's picked randomly.
I would have re-read the usage policy, but can't find a copy, so  
CC'ing Eric.

Eric, could I ask you put a link to the reflector policy somewhere on  
the reflector page please (also point me at one to read).
And also, please comment on my habit of including a 'quote of the day'  
in my mails, if you consider it unreasonable, I'll stop (I could go  
through and remove the longer ones from the possible list the client  
picks from).

Finally, the signature below was picked at random by my mail client ....

I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.
