Brian, Your suggestion was right on the mark. I must have accidently tapped option 5 under CW Weight. I now remember briefly looking at that setting when it was mentioned by someone last week on the reflector. All I had to do was tap 5 to set it back to VFO NOR. Thanks to everyone for your great responses. I really appreciate it.
BTW, I received my P3 two days ago. All I can say is that it is one nice piece of engineering. Just another addition to the growing Elecraft legend! When can I order the KPA500?
