[Elecraft] Not 0-40C

[Walter Underwood]

The error message could be better, too. I was mystified and I know about the temp sensor in the battery charger. Perhaps it should be "OVER 40C" and "UNDER 0C", especially because you do different things in those two cases. There probably isn't room to say "BAT OVER 40C", which would be even better.

Also, it would be nice to have the battery charger info integrated into the main manual and marked as optional. Maybe that update can happen after the 2m module is done. That will build out the originally-planned set of options.
