[Elecraft] Re: K3: A>B two-step (was "illogical coding")

[Jan Erik Holm]

My vote is for a single tap however what you say below also makes sens.
However if it´s possible to have a choice it sounds like the best
solution.

In a situation when you have no 2:nd RX IMO one tap would be prefered
however when you also have a 2:nd RX I can see the point with 2 taps.
