Known software/firmware issue that appears on 12M, 10M and 6M only.
Elecraft is aware of it. I wish it was fixed as it drives my amp crazy
while working any mode that has 100% duty cycle such as DATA or AM. It
is a PITA, and I wish it was resolved.

I discovered a problem with my K3, s/n 83xx.
With nothing but power and a dummy load connected to the K3, while in
TUNE on 10 meters, PWR adjusted to 15 watts, the K3 momentarily stops
transmitting every 15 seconds.
When I push the TUNE button it starts transmitting. After 15 seconds
the K3 momentarily stops transmitting for about a millisecond, again
at 30 seconds, again at 45 seconds, and again at 60 seconds and so on.
The same result in both CW and DATA modes.
If I reduce the power to under 12 watts, the K3 transmits continually.
Has anyone experienced or duplicated this characteristic with their K3?
