It was a joke, son: Didn't you see the smiley, Phil?
And regarding the situation in question:
/To enable automatic KAT500 VFO tracking:
- Locate the K3's CONFIG:KAT3 menu entry,
- Tap '1' until you see "KAT500Y". (The other selection is "KAT500N", the
default, which turns VFO tracking off.)/
I did check and my K3 was configured correctly.
There are so many configuration settings that it
was worth a check, though my system has been
functioning just fine.

Phil,
Who reads release notes? :-)
Actually, I always read the release notes, you learn things that often are
never written up anywhere else. Or, as in this case, when release notes also
double as documentation for a new function -- sort of a mini pre-release of
formal documentation to be updated.
I also always read the Preface of books, all books. On some technical books, I
peruse the index because often times there are little jewels of information
hidden away in the index. An index is not just a list of words referenced in
the book -- it contains nifty cross-references and often times other terms that
of related information.
And, when I read technical books (usually Physics and Math) I study the
background of the author. Sometimes, if Physics, I am reading some of their
published papers (I am a member of APS primarily to gain access to physics
research papers).
Yes, I do read release notes and many times I even print them out and include
in my notebook collection of things about the Elecraft rigs.

P.S. I usually do not read the actual user documentation before trying out
things though. I need to get better at that.
