[Elecraft] Upgrade problem with new K3

[Don Wilhelm]

George,

The switch tone function is not in the latest release software, but it 
is in the latest beta version 2.58.  There is a difference between 
official release and beta versions.  The normal K3 Utility setting will 
download the last official release, but to download the beta versions, 
one must follow the instructions at 
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm.
