[Elecraft] OT- FS Bodnar GPS Ref Osc

[David Anderson]

Wes,

I too was promised that the Software would be updated. It was once since I bought mine, to fix a serious bug that had been introduced. This was a long time ago. However it has not had another cosmetic item fixed yet. (The window is too tall for my tiny laptop I sometimes use). 

Saying that I don't have any problem using or understanding the item or the software. 

Like so many things, documentation is totally missing or poor. 

I am surprised that Leo has not replied, he was prompt with my request in the beginning.

ARRL had the same observation in their recent review. After seeing that and mention that there was new documentation in the works, I emailed a query and have yet to receive a reply.
