[Elecraft] Adjusting KX3 NR level *after* it's been enabled

That’s what I have to do right now and its insanely annoying because both the OFF and ON operations are long presses.
One of the great things about the KX3 is that it has outstanding usability from the front panel knobs and controls. The “adjusting the NR level” problem really kills this.

The Win4K3Suite allows tweaking this via a Spin control that appears to execute the remote commands to change the menu settings. Not an ideal solution because each single level change incurs the round-trip delay to execute the remote commands, making the change from say “4” to “7” more time consuming than it needs to be.
