[Elecraft] p3 Tap to QSY in Data A mode

[Amateur Radio Operator N5GE]

Jim,

I thought I saw a post in answer to your comment about QSY in data mode, but
perhaps it was an answer in another thread.

The poster said he noticed that when he tapped the knob on the P3 he was
rotating it very slightly.  After seeing this he said he set one of the function
buttons to TAP and his troubles went away.

I rarely operate anything but CW here and have noticed the same thing happening
to me when I'm on a narrow filters setting below 200Hz.  Although I haven't done
it yet, I plan to make the change the other poster suggested.

I hope this has been helpful.
