[Elecraft] Tech Mode

[Don Wilhelm]

There is no harm in leaving TECH MD set to ON, but there is exposure for 
those "playing in the menu" to undo the calibration settings that fall 
under the requirement to have tech mode turned on.  So when used at the 
home station, fumble fingers is the major exposure.
Now -- for Field Day and other occasions where others operating your K3 
might try changing settings 'just to see what happens', you may want to 
turn TECH MD off during that event.
