What's so difficult about using the search function in a PDF document? ;-)

Yes, "couldn't find it again" ... and, I too have stumbled into that refrain 
many times and not just with Elecraft manuals.

What would be nice are user manuals that are web-based (not PDF), that are 
heavily hyper-linked with cross references, side-bars, detail pages, and so on. 
 It takes a lot of work to do such a thing but it is very nice when well done.

I wonder if Elecraft is interested in pursuing such a documentation effort.  I 
submit that it is useful for the larger more comprehensive manuals like for the 
K3 and KX3.  Other manuals are so short with more narrow topics and limited 
extent that such hyper-linking is not as useful.

Alternatively, maybe this would be something some customers might take on.  I 
am retired and have the experience for such things having done it in the past 
for our company but I think I lack the depth and even width (OK, length too) of 
knowledge to do justice to the effort with Elecraft rigs that is needed.  I 
should say though that it is a lot of work especially when you consider adding 
new material to an existing document for additional detail or new information.

Thanks folks - I knew I read it in the manual at one time but couldn't find it 
again!

Hi All -

On the KAT500 - what antenna port is "operational" when the unit is powered 
off? Is it the last one selected prior to power off, or does it operate like the LDG 
AT-600 where it always reverts to a specific antenna port (in that model, ANT2) at power 
off?
