[PX3] Weird REF bug w/ VFO A/B

Ozy
Watch the video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSUGQqV91jg

This causes the REF value to increase every time I toggle A/B.  Pushing REF and moving the knob snaps the value back up towards where I had it even if the value is crazy big like 400 or so.   I've also had my PX3 freeze entirely a few times so far tonight.   PWR OFF / ON to recover.

Any hope on wider AM filters for SWL?  I didn't realize how small the KX3 was limited to until I saw it visualized on the PX3.  A balanced 10Khz or more please!  Is there a technical limitation?

Besides these little issues,  so far it's fantastic!   Thank you Elecraft for completing your portable masterpiece!

See Wayne's post Sept 9

"With the initial production firmware, the PX3's per-band REFerence level may occasionally be incorrect on power-up or VFO A/B swap. If this happens, set REF to the desired level on the affected band.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We'll post new firmware as soon as it's available"

Thank you Bob,  I didn't see that.

My PX3 is freezing quite a bit though.  It's freezed 5+ times this afternoon requiring a power off / on to restart it.
