[Elecraft] K-Pod VFO counts per turn?

[Wayne Burdick]

The K3 and K3S both use all 400 counts of the VFO A and B encoders (100 pulses/track/revolution). 

The K-Pod defaults to 200 counts. During our testing we found that this provided the best compromise between precision and "fussiness" for typical K-Pod operations.

We plan to add a function to K-Pod Utility (which itself isn't quite ready yet) that will allow the user to change this to 100/200/400.
