Jim,

The KTCXO3-1 has always been more stable than its spec'ed 0.5ppm 
stability, so there is no need to calibrate it for temperature vs. 
frequency using software.
Because of that fact, the fields for entering the calibration data have 
been removed from the K3 Utility and also the section referring to 
"Method 3" has been removed from the K3 manual.

In other words, since it is not needed, it has been removed.

73,
Don W3FPR
