[Elecraft] phantom K2 front panel LED

I asked about this LED a while ago, as I found it on one of the pictures
in the Elecraft PowerPoint presentation on the Elecraft web site. The
reply was that it was at one time an indicator that you were in the menu
system, i.e. that the tuning wheel had changed meaning. This is a long
time ago, maybe in some of the field test units or even before. 

The zero-beat indicator has its indicator either as a small LED in the
Tuning rate/Lock knob or in the form of the right-most indicator in the
K2's LED (see my web page for that one)
