[Elecraft] FW: P3 and K3 RS-232 baud rates

[Lyle Johnson]

  Only if you are using a serial port rate slower than 38,400 bps.  In 
some future firmware rev of the P3 or K3, this could conceivably go away.

I realize some stations are set up to use a slower data rate.  Unless 
you have a software program that is not capable of operating with a 
serial port set to 38,400 bps, or have some other technical reason to 
run slower,  I suggest you always use that rate.  Even if you don't have 
a P3 :-)
