[Elecraft] K3- suddenly lost AM sensitivity - bug - partial fix

[VE3NFK]

Hello

After the high bands fade out;  I usually do some MW listening... this
evening - the rig is decidedly insensitive on both the K3 and KRX3 - both
with general coverage and 6 khz filters.  PREamp helps - but not enough -
TS-2000 beside the K3 is normal ( levels are about 3 x stronger). signals on
80 meters are normal.
I reloaded all firmware/DSP etc to no avail.
A station that should read 9 plus 10-20 db reads 4.  ATU is bypassed.
Attenuator off.

Fixed  - still posting this for those who might find the same thing -
changing mode to LSB immediately made the K3 come-alive - and still ok when
going back to AM....

Note - band changes, K3 on/off; firmware reload did NOT change things.  I
consider it a 'minor' bug
