[Elecraft] Chasing the Update Mods Train?

[d_joyce at sympatico.ca]

Lyle:  I also second Paul's suggestion - I fact I made this same recommendation to number the various changes / modifications a number of months ago, but nothing seems to have come of it.

 

Before retirement,  I spent most of my career with the Collins Canada Div of Rockwell and was involved with many of their Ham radio products (most noteably the KWM / HF -380) and they all had their service modifications / bulletins numbered.  It made referring to them and keeping track of the status of an individual radio much easier.  (Part of the difficulty for the K3 (and perhaps other Elecraft products) is that the title and description that is used for an individual change isn't consistent from place to place in the various documents or on the web site.)  The use of SB-XX would be unambiguous (and its much shorter).

 

Request that this be numbering request be reconsidered.

 

Thanks & 73
