[Elecraft] K3 Remote VFO tuning control

I like operating from the keyboard and mouse whenever possible, but sometimes
a hardware device that does not require the computer to be on is best.  (For
reference: I am currently running a hybrid approach to handle frequency
changes.  In SSB as an example, the majority of the time I run DXLabs with
the mouse selecting Commander and a 100hz tuning rate, the radio is set to
coarse tune at 1Khz steps.  Fine tuning is done using the mouse wheel, but I
created a 2 button (1"x1.5" box) controller that sits beside the keyboard to
do coarse tuning.  I press the up/down buttons to make steps and the mouse
wheel to correct for folks running .5khz center frequencies or older rigs.) 
I would love a knob that plugs into the K3, that has buttons to program,
that also selects between coarse and fine tuning.

73, Todd
