This happens to me once in a while however if I let it go through the
cycle it shuts off TX and will be normal again next cycle with RF out.
Strange.

This problem is not unique to the K3. My Yaesu FT-1000mp does the same
thing -- locks up in transmit mode with no RF output and I have to turn it
off to regain control. The lock up is intermittent, and some days it never
happens. Rebooting everything works for a while, but when I least expect
it, the lockups will start again.

Subject: [Elecraft] WSJT-X K3/K3s hanging as Tx
For those using WSJT-X, sometimes I find the K3s is locked as transmit but
there is no RF being sent and no Rx from the K3.
Looking at the P3 I see a jitter on the upper half of the screen as if there
was a tiny output but no Rf is seen on any of the three SWR meters in line
(K3s, AP3 & LP-100A).
I couldn't get WSJT to receive, looked at the settings, all were correct and
as is sometimes needed with WSJT-X, I rebooted to get it to work properly
but it still did not lock onto the K3s frequency.
Rebooted again and then I realized the K3s was in that TX condition with
both the red & yellow LEDs lit and that jitter on the
P3 upper screen.
This happens every so often and what I
have to do is touch any of the buttons on the K3s and it disengages this
situation.
I did that to deal with the issue I
mentioned above. I could restart the K3s but then I'd have to restart
LP-Bridge and wait, so I use the quick fix.
Anyone experience this and figure out how to prevent it?
Thanks!
73,
