[Elecraft] P3 MKR Operation is jumpy / baud rate

[Allen R. Brier]

I noticed that the MKR control with the knob on my P3 is very jumpy (i.e.
not smooth) so I decided to check my baud rate of all equipment connected.
Currently, I am running the K3/P3 with LOGic 9, and a SteppIR control
(connected with a "Y" cable). I checked baud rates for everything, at they
are all set for 38,400. I even verified that the baud rate of the computer
port is set the same. However, the control is still far from smooth. I also
noticed that when the K3 is showing the baud rate in the CONFIG menu, it
will show 4800 baud when I press the DISP button. I can't find anything in
the manual to explain. Perhaps I am not setting the baud rate correctly?
