[Elecraft] P3 Clicking

Normally when you change bands with the K3 the P3 will click(relay?) once and the scope level will drop down a little. Recently I hear the click happen ever once in awhile just sitting there no band change. Is there something failing? 73, John N1JM - 73, John N1JM K3 #5986 P3 #1752 KPA500

On further investigation it appears to only happen on 40 meters and I discovered I had the preamp on. Once I turned the preamp off the clicking seems to have disappeared. If this has something to do with high signal level, I'm only listening to -110dbm noise. 73, John N1JM John_N1JM wrote
