[Elecraft] KX3 Auto OFF on battery only suggestion

[Peter Lambert]

Consider the use of an external battery pack.  Starts to get complicated.
Perhaps best the way it is and up to the operator to turn the feature on
when it's required.

The menu system is very quick and easy to use with a little familiarity.

Good idea, David. I'd like that option, too.
