Hmmm ... and here I thought I was way too old to learn new things.

1.  There's a K-Pod utility
2. There's an update for K-Pod firmware
3.  My K-Pod runs with just the flat cable inserted and no wall wart needed
4.  To get the K-Pod utility to work, you have to do some finger 
gymnastics on F1/F4
5. The new FW rev really does change the encoder rate

All I'm missing now is, "Do I like my old rate [1/2 the VFO A rate] or 
the 1:1 rate?"  I'll try the new 1:1 for awhile.  Odds are very high 
I'll get used to it right away and not notice the difference.

73,
