Hello!

I just had to resubscribe to share the excellent news.  I sent my K3 #1540 back to 
the factory 1.5 weeks ago for updating with all hardware updates since it came out. 
I received it yesterday and it is installed again and running better than ever!  When 
they said it probably would take 2 weeks, I thought that meant 2 weeks in their shop 
to await a turn!  Instead I received it back home and installed again in the shack in 
under 2 weeks!  THANKS ELECRAFT!!

Now that I have it back again, I thought I would see if I could install my E-MU sound 
card and LP-PAN again.  I gave up on it when I got them a couple years ago because of 
the way I had my system set up at the time.  But when I noticed last week that the 
most recent update to TRX-Manager included support for the new TRX-PAN, I installed 
the LP-PAN and E-MU sound card and am off to the races with TRX-PAN! What a great 
tool this will be to use during the upcoming Es season on 6m!

I have used TRX-Manager as my logging program for many years, and obviously am very 
happy with it.  But I am THRILLED with the huge support that F6DEX has given to the 
K3 with his program.  I also use the TRX-Command function to store and execute all 
the macros for my K3, and find it much more convenient than trying to put them in 
buttons on the radio or in the K3 Utility (which has lost them in the past).

MANY THANKS to Elecraft and also to F6DEX!  GL and VY 73, Lance
