[Elecraft] K3 - no stereo, no AFX

[David Ferrington, M0XDF]

Make sure you have CONFIG: SPKR+PH = NO  (or CONFIG:SPKRS = 2 to  
ensure K3 'knows' you've got stereo output devices)

Enable AFK (tap the [AFX] button on bottom right of keypad) to turn ON  
(VFO B display says on, if it was on, display shows OFF, tap again).

tap [MENU] and turn VFO B knob until VFO B display shows 'AFX MD',  
turn VFO A knob to change delay - I find any setting below 3 to just  
be in my left ear, 4 to 6 being most noticeable as an effect.
