So if I never get above 35 wpm under and
circumstances, I don't need to rush to this update?

A customer just alerted us to a firmware issue in CW
mode. When using 
external keying (handkey, computer, or external
computer) or the 
internal keyer at over 40 WPM, the K3 may switch to
the wrong receive 
VFO frequency, crystal filter, and/or preamp setting
on key-up. It 
appears that this behavior has been present since MCU
revision 1.62.

While these symptoms should occur rarely, we recommend
that everyone 
update their K3 MCU firmware to revision 1.69. (1.68
had just been 
released yesterday.) Sorry for the inconvenience.

73,
