Over the past 6 months my K3 has developed a curious problem. When I turn it on and it goes through it's "boot" cycle, I go to key the radio the rig does not key properly in that it drops a dit or dah. It makes no difference what antenna I use or if the amp is on or off or what I use to key the radio - computer or external paddle. After a warm up period of say 5 minutes, all's well and the rig keys normally. This gets to be a problem if I turn the rig on and there is something I want to work immediately. If I wait then all's well.
I'm guessing there is either a board or component that isn't totally happy until this warm up is complete. Thoughts appreciated.
