[Elecraft] P3 SVGA Self changing tracking mode

[Rick WA6NHC]

More data points:  I usually use FixMode set to 'static' and FixTrack 
set to 'Fixed tune mode'.  I don't know how that factors in...  It may 
be another cause, but by cycling FixTrack, I can get it to display 
properly AFTER I recenter the display to start over again.

This happens consistently here.  Thanks for checking your station.
