A cardinal rule at Elecraft is that the manuals are written by someone who
has actually done the procedures, usually several times! If it's operating
information, that's Wayne on the K3. If it's assembly procedures it's
myself. 

That way the process and how to describe each step is based on real-life
hands-on experience doing it. 

Because each step of the procedure is based on "real life" and *not* what I
like to call a "thought experiment" (a thought experiment is when someone
sits back and imagines how it should work), sometimes the way a step is
worded looks strange until you have the parts in hand.

Here is what I did....

I printed out the manual and read it through several times.  Even thought I
did that, some things did not make sense until I have the part in hand and
could actually see what was going on.  I guess I am a visual person.  I took
notes and wrote in the manual and did some highlighting.  I also put tabs in
so I could find information quickly.

The manual does come with the parcel, but I left that alone to have a
pristine copy of the manual.
