One only need to look at many of the software distribition models....for years
when I was dialup only I would download 100 meg plus applications...the authors
used utilities that split large application into chunks that could be
re-assembled.... my the downloader.
Back in the bad old days, one could split a large application into pieces that
would live on a floppy....I used to distribute software to my customers who had
only 360 kb drives.
Elecraft could also make use of many of the free(but one gets to ignore ad
content) file sharing services, so there would be no load on their servers.
If someone were to supply a high-def version of the manual, I can attempt to
split it into chunks and find a place where is can be downloaded.
