[Elecraft] [K3] factory upgrade to K3(s)

[Bill Frantz]

(Note: K3s refers to multiple K3 radios. K3S refers to a single 
K3S radio. K3Ss or K3Ses refers to multiple K3S radios. I'm 
sorry if you are reading the note on a monocase system like RTTY.)

Many of us have installed the new synthesizers in our K3s. For 
example, #6299 has the new synthesizers, and the rest of the 
available K3S goodies. One clear advantage of Elecraft radios is 
that they can be upgraded, and they don't even need a trip back 
to the factory to do it.
