David: I am replying to the list because I have received similar offline requests for K3 video download lists/URLs or better yet select download lists/URLs. Let me explain some of the fallacies of those requests.
First my library consists of files, not URLs. The files were downloaded at maxim resolution available and stored only as mp4 videos. Duplicate files were removed. Multiple parts were combined. Whenever possible defects or commercial insertions were edited out. Duplicated file names for dissimilar files were renamed. This means that searching the Internet for my file names will only be partially successful. In addition to the aforementioned name issues the idea of a select download list begs the question, On what basis was the selection made? We are not all of common purpose. My intentions were to first create a personal resource for creating various training presentations which would culminate in the production of a menu driven DVD. Since the material is intended for personal use, no investigation of copyrights or other restrictions has been pursued. In getting the material to John I first considered sending a raw DVD ROM to him but I abandoned that idea when I saw I had more material than a one DVD ROM would hold. Since a thumb drive is less than 2 ounces I can send it as first class USPS postage for one forever stamp. At the time I had no idea anyone on the other side of the big pond would want copies. I also have no idea whether thumb drives can be freely transferred by international mail or whether they might be subject to valuation, tariff, or valued added tax. I would hope they would be treated like an international lending library e-book, i.e. something that is sent out and returned shortly. Assuming costs are reasonable I still consider thumb drives as faster than trying to discover and download material which has taken me years to accumulate.

Hello Fred I am very interested in your set of videos but it would be easier for many to download them from a list with their urls for those not in your geographic area. I can see it would be time-consuming for you to do that, so, perhaps your selection of the best? 73 David G3UNA Chairman, Ripon And District Amateur Radio Society ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Townsend" <fptowns...@earthlink.net> To: <k...@arrl.net> Cc: <elecraft@mailman.qth.net>; "'John Fritze'" <fritzej...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, April 05, 2013 6:17 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft K3 presentation for a club? > John, as a former program director I can verify it is difficult to talk > about sounds without reproducing that sound.
