[Elecraft] KX3 Owner's Manual Errata update, rev B4-4

[geoff allsup]

Thanks, Don.  I understand that was the intention with the manual, and I 
do follow the Firmware/Manual update notes, as well as the reflector.  
At the moment, the firmware update notes document has reached 13 pages 
and is full of little tidbits and tweaks for the manual, as well as an 
occasional outright change or addition.  And I'm certain I've already 
lost track of some bits of reflector wisdom from Wayne and Eric that 
might be valuable in a manual update as well.   While I can mark up my 
paper manual, it's not so easy to use the Rev B4 PDF manual from last 
June plus the update notes that I keep on my PC and iPad and iPhone any 
more!  In any case, just curious.  I'm sure the guys will updtae the 
manual when they feel the time is right :-) Meanwhile, I'm having a ton 
of fun with my KX3!!
