[Elecraft] P3 New Features

All the 'plain vanilla' USB1 and USB2 drives that I tried would work with
the pre-beta firmware, but download times varied from 20 seconds up to
almost 50 seconds. The fastest that I tried was a Kingston Data Traveler 8GB
USB2.0. A drive labelled "USB3.0" didn't work at all.

If Elecraft can move on to make that same USB port function with a mouse as
well, allowing point-and-click tuning (left click moves VFOA, right-click
moves VFOB) that would leave the PC-based SDRs with very little competitive
advantage.
