[Elecraft] K3: FM coarse tuning rates

[ab2tc]

I may be daft but I still find the setting of the tuning step on the K3 very
complex and bewildering. Why can't I choose between the 4 coarse settings by
simply holding the COARSE button 4 times and the fine settings by tapping it
4 times? To have to go into CONFIG to do this seems unnecessarily
complicated. Is it really that important to somebody to have a one click
choice between two values?
