[Elecraft] K3 -S

[Wayne Burdick]

You're in SYNC DATA mode (minimal-turnaround for Pactor, etc.). The  
only way to get into this mode is have assigned the CONFIG:SYNC DT  
menu entry to a programmable function switch, then pressed it while in  
SSB or DATA mode.

To get back out of it, assign a switch (PFx/Mx) to this menu entry and  
press it again.
