Maybe the answer for VHF amplifier use is to use some delay between when the K3 keys up before it puts out power and then on the DVR leave a little pause before starting to record, ie no audio should equal little power out on SSB if the background while recording is quite. Apparently the K3

Another reason for this request is if I understand what I read that doing over the air recording would erase an existing message if the buffer is full. The 90-second record-off-the-air DVR loop buffer, and the eight DVR Tx message memory buffers, are completely separate. You can't erase a Tx
