Would it help to increase the delay in transmitting, CW rise time? I know
there are products available from a few sources which introduce an extra
delay between TX and RX to overcome your situation. With My K3 and
inverted L the separation of K9AY and inverted L is greater than yours but
not as much as I would like and all is okay. Previously I had problems
with an Orion 2 when using an RX antenna. Experimenting with the delay is
easy to do.

Mike,
It would be good if you post that to the Elecraft reflector just for
general information.
