K3 V5.6 beta FW doesn't ....

[briancom]

allow access of PREAMP 2 on 15 & 17M.

The notes seem to indicate it should.

This is on an 8xxx S/N K3 with upgrades.
Preamp 2 still shows up on 12-6M.

You have to go to 17 and 15 meters and go into the CONFIG:PREAMP2 menu and turn it on for those bands.

Cheers,
