[Elecraft] Using the k3 for WSPR

[Richard Ferch]

Oops! I missed the fact that the different frequencies in WSPR are 
because of the audio offset - I imagine it is not using either of SPLIT 
or RIT/XIT. My mind was set on split because of the earlier posts about 
WSJT-X. I believe my previous post was correct, but it is probably 
irrelevant to WSPR.
