Rotary controls in the K3 and P3 increase their parameter as the
encoder is turned clockwise except in two cases.

1) The P3 "REF LVL" is decreased with clockwise rotation.  Maximum
    reference level is -10 dBm with the encoder fully counterclockwise
    while it is minimum -160 dBm with the encoder fully clockwise.

2) The P3 "SCALE" (range) is decreased with clockwise rotation.
    Scale is minimum (10 dB) when the encoder is fully clockwise
    and maximum (80 dB) when the encoder is fully counterclockwise.

Both of these controls violate the principle of "expected" behavior
and consistent operation.
