[Elecraft] K3 CW Decode FW 04.51

[Keith Heimbold]

Yes this is a known issue, however, I found if you raise threshold to 15 and slope to 2 that it performs slightly better. I was using it along with Fldigi with good success this weekend. Zambia on 10m and Liechtenstein on 17. Both new ones thanks to the K3 decode and fldigi.

We are all waiting for the next iteration of a substantive fix for this situation and I'm sure the Elecraft folks are hot on it.
