[Elecraft] CW/CW-REV config option

[wb6rse1 at mac.com]

For DXers, the standard for CW has always been USB. IE a higher pitch tone means a station higher in frequency. Very useful when looking for the "spot" when the DX is split and listening up. Also standard. CW USB on the K3 is indeed CW REV. LSB CW, for DXing,  is considered backwards. To each his own.

The K3 CW tuning is the way I like it - tune to a higher frequency and 
the pitch of the note gets higher.  It just makes sense to me, and I 
hate radios that do it 'backwards'.
