[Elecraft] K3 VFO Tuning Rates (alternative: via FREQ ENT)

[Phil LaMarche]

Having owned an Icom 756 Pro 3, I loved that feature.  Just put the Ten Tec
rubber over the knob and it is much nicer to use.

I like it as well on my ICOM rig, and would be in favor of including it on
the K3.  I assume that it could be a firmware option so that those who are
bothered by the concept aren't by the reality.
In the meantime, I enjoy fast QSYs around each band by using the RIT knob
option.
