[Elecraft] KX3 ATU tuning improvements; need testers

Hi all,

A recent thread on the KX3 list helped me identify a bug that was causing the ATU to retune from scratch unnecessarily at times. It now correctly tries existing band-segment data first. It also now updates LC data (if required) when you use A/B swap, REV, SPLIT, and FREQ ENT. This saves a lot of ATU retuning on transmit, and takes better advantage of the ATU in receive mode, since loading new LC data can improve signal strength.

If you use the ATU frequently and can test the new firmware right away, please email me directly.

Thanks,

Wayne
