Thanks to all for remembering the K3 Wiki website!

It is available for contributions and we encourage that greatly.

It is true that we require submitted material to have a final approval before a link pointing to newly added pages is entered into an existing page - however - add all the pages you want, instantly, nobody is here to stop you!

I have been surprised at the high readership (hit counts), but offers to contribute are next to nil. That's why some of the information is up to two years old. I have to thank Barry N1EU for working so hard in providing the latest most relevant information. I have to apologize for the lack of updates to the K2 wiki, which was created to allow an entry point for K2 users. We have just had nobody to step up on that.

Thom LaCosta is footing the bill in the bandwidth for both of these services and believe me this costs $$$ real money. All I have in it is my time. ;-) The bottom line here is that somebody has to write a check each month for our free service on the Zerobeat Web Servers.  

So here is a call to action - add your page, tell me what it is named or ask me how to add it. I'll give it a VERY loose review just to make sure that there is none of this SPAM content that has been showing up lately, and then will open the page to the readership by adding the link to an existing page. Alternately you can just post a link to the page here on the reflector. Everyone here will see it.

Have a great new year and thanks for reading.

Although listed as a sysop I have actually had nothing to do with the wiki.
Most of the work on the wiki was done by Don WB8YQJ. There have been a lot
of new K3 owners since it was started and I am sure he would welcome new
additions to the team who have an interest in contributing to and/or
maintaining it.

I believe that content had to be approved by sysops as a response to some of
the reactionary members of the reflector who stated that they would not
trust the wiki as a source of information because people might deliberately
post misinformation on it.
