[Elecraft] K3 Key Out Inoperative in CW & Tune Modes

[Don Wilhelm]

  Dennis,

Save the configuration and do the EEINIT, then restore the configuration.

At most you might have to enter one menu parameter manually - but only 
if it is wrong in your K3 right now.  If all your menu items are correct 
now, they will restore correctly.

Having to manually change one parameter is far different from having to 
manually restore them all.  Your source seems to have blown things out 
of proportion.
