Yes, 288 + single sided pages would be terrible!  Fortunately, I was able to 
print mine out double sided and it fits into a hardcover binder with no problem.

Re: [Elecraft] KE7X K3 Book 20% saving

2011-06-26 Thread David Yarnes
Hi All,

After reviewing the sample info on KE7X's website, I decided to order the 
book as a PDF.  The download process is a little convoluted (through Lulu), 
but it came through alright.

Yes, it's only black and white--no color.  Color would be nice, but I 
planned on printing it out on a  B & W laser printer anyway--which I have 
now done.  It came out just fine--all 280 pages!  I have a nice little 
Brother laser printer, which prints out copies for just over a penny a 
copy--and it has a duplexing feature, so I guess I saved a few bucks doing 
it this way.  Still have to put it in some sort of binder, but that's no big 
deal.

Anyway, it's a huge volume with excellent explanations throughout, based on 
what I've seen/read so far.  It also gives me great insight as to what folks 
in Montana do during those long winters when it's 30 below zero and snow all 
over the ground!  Hi.  Kudos to KE7X for an excellent piece of work.

Dave W7AQK

Craig,
 The printed version is nice in that with double sided printing and a
good spiral binding it is easy to work with.  It easily folds over on
itself.  I would think the 280 one sided pages would be more clumsy to work
with in a binder.  Regardless the book is well done and I am most pleased
with my own copy.

Question for those who have the printed book and/or pdf:  I was in the
process of ordering the printed version and first looked at the samples on
the website.  It appears that this document is in black and white rather
than color.  Is that the actual case with the final product?  The many

it is actually all monochrome I may just get the pdf version, as have a good

Thanks, everyone, for the useful info in the book options.  I decided to go 
with the PDF version.  Based on my quick browse through it, it looks like lots 
of helpful information nicely arranged.  I'll move the PDF to my IPad for 
convenient searching and probably print out only selected sections for a 
hardcopy reference.

Question for those who have the printed book and/or pdf:  I was in the
process of ordering the printed version and first looked at the samples on
the website.  It appears that this document is in black and white rather
than color.  Is that the actual case with the final product?  The many
graphs, charts and P3 displays would certainly be enhanced with color.  If
it is actually all monochrome I may just get the pdf version, as have a good
black and white laser printer here.  On the other hand, the price of the
printed version would be a reasonable value if it were in color.
