Dave,

Am I the only one who suffers from the K3 earthing the "key out" terminal while it does its "clunkety klunk" power up sequence?

You're right: KEY OUT is going low for a significant time on power-up (about 3 seconds according to my measurements). There's no RF, but we definitely didn't intend to assert this line.

I just changed the firmware so that KEY OUT goes low for the minimum possible time on power-up, about 50 milliseconds. This reflects the start-up time of the microcontroller.

Thanks for catching this. The change will be in the next beta-test release.

73,
