[Elecraft] K3 dbV in 2.38

[alsopb]

Hi Steff,

Thanks reply.

Try this.  Set your K3 up to display dBV.  Turn your K3 off.  Turn the K3
on.  Look at the value.  Wait.  See if it ever changes from +99.9.  It never
does here.

This works:
Have any other parameter displayed in the VFO B area.  Turn rig off.  Turn
it on.  That parameter does display. Then turn VFO B to display dbV.  In a
matter of seconds, it displays OK.

It is like the K3 doesn't know the dBV display option has been selected at
startup-- at least here.

No big problem of course.
