[Elecraft] K3/P3/SVGA

The P3 SVGA doesn't do CW, RTTY, or PSK31 decoding.  The K3 does the decoding and presents it in the VFO B area.  A copy is available through the K3 serial port programmers command set, and P3 SVGA uses that TB command. The K3 Utility uses the same K3 decode mechanism for its Terminal page. The heavy lifting for TTY, PSK, and CW decoding is done in K3 firmware.

I know it will decode to the large screen and at the same time send that decoded text to the K3, but it sure would be nice to NOT send the the decode text to the K3 VFO B area. I certainly have NO idea what's involved, but it seems it might be a firmware change.
