[Elecraft] K3 Wiki Site

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

Well, I wish I'd known, since I found the site helpful from time to time, but as my knowledge of the K3 grew, I found less need of the Wiki. However, it was good to know it was there for when I might want to look at it, especially some of the reference material.

I completely understand why you would want to drop it Thom, but perhaps if you'd indicated your intention to do so, someone else would have stepped up to take it on?

Do you still have all the content archived away somewhere?
