But human beings WILL make mistakes, especially in contests or at special-event stations where there are too many other things happening and people are tired; and so they lose concentration. And regardless of how perfect you yourself may be, if you are trustee of a multi-op or club station you are also responsible for other people's mistakes on the air. Personally and <legally> responsible. So we all agree that band edge transgressions are important; they are simple to avoid but they also need continual watchfulness. Well, isn't that EXACTLY the kind of monitoring task that computers do best? Regrettably, this is yet another area where the K3 remains unfinished compared with the competition. Other manufacturers have seen the risks of human error and done something to help avoid it; but the K3 will let you fail. 73 from Ian GM3SEK ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
