I've had the same thing happen a few times with my K3 on SSB. First time it happened it made me jump as the audio volume was so loud. It's not consistent, but seems to happen more frequently with longer TX periods. I do use HRD most of the time with my K3+P3. It might only happen once a week with me. Since it seems to be sporadic, I wonder whether there is some kind of timing window for a firmware defect. Say, a combination of commands from HRD plus PTT on/off plus firmware timing. Fortunately, I tend to operate more CW than Phone, so at this stage it's just an occasional irritation. But it would be nice to get this fixed.
