[Elecraft] K3 - Win7 Starter Edition on HP NetBook works great

[K5WA]

I have been happily surprised to find that the K3 Utility, N1MM software and
a USB cable's ability to load firmware and back up my K3's configuration
work flawlessly on my new little HP NetBook computer.  I am getting ready
for a radio vacation and needed to travel very lightly, so I purchased a
refurbished HP NetBook thinking that if it didn't work, I wouldn't be out
much money.  I have been happy to see that it works great using the serial
port at 75 wpm to test out the QRQ features.  QSK is VERY sweet now!  I
won't be using QRQ in real life but I still thought it would be interesting
to see if the computer could handle it.  No problems.  The K3 sent just
fine.
