Backup Storage Media (was RE: [Elecraft-K3] Two help needs on my K3 i hope there is an easy answer)
John – There are too many other factors involved in determining media life to make a blanket statement like that. For example, CD-R drives can be expected to last 50 – 200 years according to the indus

KPA/KAT500 Command Sets
