[Elecraft] [P3] Firmware Reload

[Brett Howard]

You should also do a reset of the P3 after the reload of the latest
software.  Hold the MENU/LABELS key while turning the P3 power on.
Hold the button till it says configuration reset.  You'll lose your
reference calibration and any of your FN labels but this has been
known to flush out some of the problems that existed and gives you a
clean slate from which to start from with your new firmware.
