[Elecraft] KX3 Manual

[K8TE]

Actually, you can update the PDF version of Elecraft manuals.  This is a
great (IMHO) way to keep track of firmware changes.  I can carry all the
annotated manuals with me during portable/mobile expeditions for the
eventuality of a memory failure (mine, not the rigs').  It also saves a lot
of trees.  I always know where to find my PDF copies and really dislike most
paperwork, except for the awesome KE7X books.

I tried doing this with the IC-7610 manual, but it was not allowed.  I would
add this to the K3s vs. IC-7610 comparison chart as an Elecraft benefit. 
BTW, I have the 7610 manual to help a friend who bought one.  His radio is
back at Icom for what seems to be a common failure mode--suddenly no TX or
RX.  He would not drink the Elecraft Kool-Aid I tried to provide, even
though he's operated many a K3 at FD or contest sites with me.

I download all the Elecraft manuals and print them on 3-hole paper
(pre-punched) and then keep them in a binder.  This way, I can add notes
here and there in the right spot merely by inserting another 3-hole punched
paper or punching printed e-mails or something myself. 

I think this is the absolute best way to manage the information you will
collect over the years on different things like suggested settings for
this-and-that and so on.
