[Elecraft] Data mode shows 600hz BW on P3

[Jim Shepherd]

Thanks for the help--Bandwidth was showing full on the screen on the K3s,
but when I hit the XFIL a couple of times it cleared up even though I did
not change any filters.  It stayed ok for a couple of hours of making
contacts, so I hope it is cured... 73  Jim W6US
