Dan . . .
Were you running a pre-recorded message on button 1 (the PRE button)?
If you forgot to tap the MSG button first before you tapped button 1,
then the PRE function would be operative, not the message-play function.
Have done it myself.

Interesting Dan, I had a similar experience both with the KX2 and the
lousy conditions here in eastern PNW (northern ID). I was sending CQs
with the MSG key then the "1" key. Once the radio got real quiet and I
saw that the preamp was off. I think what happened was that the MSG key
did not
I was out this weekend doing the Bumblebee QRP contest (lousy conditions here
in PNW!) and a couple of times I noticed that the preamp switched itself off.
First time I thought I bumped the switch but it actually did it 2 more times. I
was running 5W cw to a magloop carefully tuned to resonance
