[Elecraft] Firmware

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ, Elecraft]

Beta Releases of K3 firmware are released as .zip files and are not 
automatically recognized by K3Utility.

We do this as an extra step to insure those loading the release 
understand this is beta test firmware for user testing, and it not a 
formal release of K3 firmware. It has already been tested here, so it is 
usually very stable. We release it first as a beta version for a short 
period of time so that we can get additional feedback from customers 
prior to formally releasing it and using it in production radios.

73, Eric
