[Elecraft] K3 HRD lastest beta not working with LP-Bride

[Larry Phipps]

Hi Simon. I have not implemented the $ commands yet, or some of the 
other new commands discussed on the developer's reflector. I plan to do 
that when I get caught up on orders. Because the K3 might be talking to 
up to five different applications, I generally don't allow meta commands 
to be passed to the K3. I keep it in one mode for K2* and K3* commands. 
I can add this as an option for one "main" program, but that could cause 
problems with other programs. I could also add a slew of commands to 
fill in the "virtual K3" that I create so that it can answer either K30 
or K31 commands, but that's a lot of work that will have to wait. I have 
about 45 "GET" commands implemented, but I think there have been at 
least a dozen added in the last few weeks by Wayne. Most "SET" commands 
are passed on, except for some of the dev commands and meta commands.

In the meantime, I will download and test your latest beta to see what's 
going on. It seems that it should still work at the level it used to, 
even without the added command support.
