[Elecraft] K3 Split-Mode CW pressing "Rev" Problem

[Fred Jensen]

I don't know if mine is the effect you're seeing but for K3 #642, 
tapping the buttons too lightly [to keep the radio from moving] will 
often "beep" but nothing happens, and much less often, will cause some 
other function to occur.  Once I secured the radio with that double 
stick moulding tape on the feet that was recommended and I got used to 
actuating the buttons firmly, the effect seems to have disappeared.
