[Elecraft] Update on KAT500/KPA500 firmware tweaks

[Wayne Burdick]

We're getting excellent reports from several customers who are testing new KAT500 and KPA500 firmware. (The changes mainly pertain to fault indications and incorrect re-tuning.) We hope to get this code to beta early next week.

We're also working on a new feature that will allow the K3 to retune the KAT500 automatically, in receive mode, each time the VFO is moved. This feature would be turned on/off in a K3 menu entry (default would be off). By "retune," I mean that the KAT500 would select an LC combination that had been previously stored for the applicable band segment--the same thing that happens when the tuner measures the transmit frequency.
