I wonder since this is a "software detected" mod at setup if the
firmware program could report it is there. (alternatively, maybe the K3
can report it like it does key err)  I'm not keen on zapping the front
end with a high signal level from an uncalibrated source to find out if
it is working.

There perhaps may be other mods that could be detected in software and
reported as well.
