[Elecraft] rise/fall time: blind-sided

[Tom Hammond]

Very early-on in the Field test series... LONG before any 'production'
K3s were even considered, there WAS a menu configuration parameter
which allowed the user to vary the CW rise/fall times, by a small
amount. However, it was removed from the menu quite a while ago, in
lieu of a (currently) single fixed setting.

This parameter HAS been discussed within the Field Test group and there
is a possibility (note this word... 'possibility') that rise/fall time
may be added back at a later date, but probably not any time soon...
Wayne has a number of much more important firmware items to address
before this subject is re-addressed.

It's not gong to do much good to beat it (or Wayne) up at this point.
But wait several months, until things slow down a bit, and THEN give
it a shot. It might be considered then.
