[Elecraft] Firmware rev. 2.95 available for KX3; supports device for audio SWR reporting

[Grant Youngman]

Hi, Wayne …

Not a biggie, but the release notes posted to the web indicate the date of this release as 12-4-2018.  Couple of years off :-)  Nice to see an improvement in AM power level management also.

Feel free to contact Joe if you have questions about this. At least one blind KX3 operator is already using one.
