K4 built-in operating manual now available

Nigel
I kind of like that the K4 has a built in manual, which is no doubt
updated as required AUTOMATICALLY.

Is there a provision to print out the manual from the K4?  I'm pretty
much a "paper person" and print out all my manuals. Not having to
revisit the Elecraft web to see if a more recent version of a manual is
available would be a  nice bonus IMHO.

Even if you could do that, it might not be as useful as you expect.  Sections/topics are linked from a main page and keywords, but not paginated.  And there’s no page numbered “index” to help you get around.  This is more of a greatly expanded “help" function than a typically organized manual.  It would be hard to get around in it on paper, unless you did a lot of reformatting and/or indexing before printing it.

Just one though on the subject.

FYI:   the Elecraft website also has PDF versions of the K4 manual that
you can print right now.
