[Elecraft] - Manuals (was KX3 and KPA500)

[Bob Nielsen]

As long as Elecraft continues to make kits (and I certainly hope they do), printed manuals will be essential.  I just can't see clicking on a box with my mouse to indicate that I have completed a step.  Printing a 100+ page pdf file isn't very practical either.
