My two cents on this topic I have been testing all the FW beta versions since the very first one I installed at my K3/2192 and never have had any kind of problem with them,sometimes as Don said,I go back to the former one just to hear the difference but so far all the beta FW that has been released are very safe and they will not damage anything at all in your radio.Besides reporting any posible problem is the only way Elecraft team will know what to fix,so always will be testers who will tell them what's good and what's wrong,its up to you weather you try or not but as I said,beta FW is a good thing to do.Good luck AD4C K3 and K2

I see too many complaints of one sort or another on the reflector about problems with beta releases. I don't like computers and use them minimally and thus have no interest in loading in a update to experiment with, then reverting back to earlier version in case of problems -- that is what beta testers enjoy doing. And I suspect there are quite a few guys like me. If everyone is supposed to load the beta releases, what is the purpose of a regular release? And Don, has there been no stable beta release sine May that could be issued as the new production release? 73, Lee (K9CM) ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
