[Elecraft] [KX3] SWR/RF Display Switching to CMP/ALC

[Don Wilhelm]

Gary,

Early KX3s had nuts on the encoder shafts which made the switch action 
intermittent at times because the nuts interfered with full travel when 
the knob was tapped.
So check for nuts on your encoder shafts - if present, remove them - 
they are not needed.
