I grabbed v6.31 of K7QO’s Lab Notebook dated September 16 2017 from the Wayback Machine. Unfortunately there are no later captures of the file available. It’s a large PDF and the Internet Archive has limited resources, so it will take a while to load. I recommend saving a local copy for future reference. https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.k7qo.com/lab.pdf Also consider donating to the Internet Archive as they do fantastic work!

I’ve a copy of v6.6 of K7QO’s Lab Notebook dated August 17 2020. Where can I put it to give everyone access?
Looks like a fellow ham has beaten you to it. This post on Groups.io https://groups.io/g/qrptech/message/3838 led me to check Archive.org again and I found v6.6 here: https://archive.org/details/k-7-qos-qrp-lab-notebook-v-6.6-aug-17-2020
