Gawd, now you're going way back .. no, I *don't* have one of those lurking
around to check!  :-)  But yeah, I think I probably would have used &K3
with the old M5, too.  I definitely used &K3 with the M7F, and have
left &K9 well enough alone on the M34F and it seems to be working.

I may change it in future - but for now, it works so I'm not messing with it.

Wonder why?  ;-)

I saw some list of settings Paul posted and it had &K3 in there.  Who
knows what the hell is going on .. a Spirit Viper now, he says.

Cheers..
