[Elecraft] New Firmware Issues with K3

[JAMES ROGERS]

I first tested the CAT command "FAxxxxxxxxxxx;" (xs being the  
frequency to QSY to) using the K3 Utility and it worked like a champ,  
no problems. I then went to HRD's command tester and was able to send  
the same commands successfully, but HRD reported a ERROR in the  
response back from the K3 and I think that what might be happening is  
the HRD ERROR handler might be saying "bad command" and restores the  
previous band and frequency.
