[Elecraft] P3 Beta software Bug?

I agree here ... FSK D, AFSK A, and PSK D should show 400, 400 and 100
Hz, while only DATA A should show the full 2.7 or 2.8 KHz.

It would also be very nice if *NORM* would default to 2.8 KHz in DATA A
on the K3 rather than 400 Hz (which is only appropriate for FSK D and
AFSK A).

73,
