[Elecraft] K3 LED/LCD brightness

[drewko]

Cookie,

The LEDs are the ones on the Shift, Width, etc. knobs; they become
extremely bright when "LCD Brt" (display backlight) is set to "dAY"
(or off), and there is no way to adjust them because "LED Brt" is no
longer functional (it just beeps when you spin the vfo). Only when
"LCD Brt" is set at some value 1 to 8 can "LED Brt" be adjusted. 

I checked the above text about five times for proper use of LED vs
LCD... it can get a little confusing, hahah

Anyhow, I'd like to use the LCD "day" setting and also be able to
adjust the LED brightness down.

73,

When set to DAY the back light is off and the contrast is just from the reflection on the back plane versus opaque for the activated elements.  I didn't know there was a Day setting until your post even after a few thousand contacts over the past year.
