[Elecraft] KX3 "FAST PLAY"

In QRP contesting, I do a lot of band switching. If I understand FAST PLAY
correctly, having it on the band switch buttons is a big waste of time. It
would take a good 10-15 seconds to de-activate FP, switch bands, re-activate
FP. On the other hand, I virtually NEVER use the PRE/NR(1), ATTN/NB(2), and
APF/NTCH(3) buttons in contesting or otherwise. Personally I would much
sooner see these three buttons used for FP. I also like the idea of Heinz
HB9BCB about allowing the user to choose the buttons. What do other
contesters think?
