I'm still getting used to my new P3. The original P3 firmware had the baud
rate bug, and when I changed to 01.16, all was well (K3 f/w 4.50).
I then loaded K3 f/w 4.51 for better AGC - and here's the confusion:
Under 4.50, I coulda' sworned that the P3 cursor for VFO B (violet) was
only displayed when the SUB rcvr was on (good, avoids clutter), but now
(4.51) it is displayed continuously. Am I mistaken? Have I pushed some
hidden button?(it's possible) I do find it distracting.
Incidentally, it seems that I prefer to leave the P3 in "fixed-tune" mode.
In "tracking" mode, the VFO B cursor chases itself up and down the band.
Unfortunately, I've given my borrowed KE7X book back to its rightful owner,
so I have to ask you guys. (OK, OK, I'll get my own copy!)
One other thing - what do you guys do with MKRA and MKRB?
I can't seem to find a practical use for that feature.
