[Elecraft] K3 USERS MOTTO

[Ralph Tyrrell]

I have a large collection of emails from AC7AC,W3FPR,
NOSS, N6KR, WA6HHQ, KK7P and many others on this
reflector. I save them because of the technical
information in them.

KR2Q wrote what I consider should be the K3 USERS
MOTTO.

I have a copy of it in front of my K3 three ring
binder.
Thank you Doug.

Waiting for a K3, maybe in 2 weeks?

K3'ers:

When you purchased the K3, you bought into the SDR
concept.  For me,
this meant a self-acknowledgment that I would, of
necessity, become an
addict of sorts....watching the Elecraft Reflector
(including reading
all of the posts), as well as attempting to stay
upright while riding
the wave of new releases and other "finds."  IMO,
there is some degree
of owner responsibility if you want to keep your radio
"up to date."

Elecraft does provide some hints.

You can always just randomly stop by the UPDATE page
and check.
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm

You can set up your K3 Utility to check automatically
(every six
 hours!)

You can visit the Application Notes page:
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_app_notes.htm

You can visit the Operating Tips page:
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_operating_tips.htm

Beyond what is provided by Elecraft, you can filter
the reflector for
only memos from Eric, Wayne, Lyle, etc.

Or...you can simply be happy with "your version" and
never check again
(as is the case with nearly all non-USA radios out
there).

For me, buying into the K3 also implied a personal
commitment to
staying "connected."
