Re: [Elecraft] P3 Turn On Flash

Funny, but until this thread I'd never noticed it. Mine does the same thing, but since I have my P3 set to power up when I turn the power supply on and before the K3, I'm looking at the power supply when it turns on so I never saw it before today. It's part of the power on sequence. I

Re: [Elecraft] Suggested KX3 "upgrade"

Re: [Elecraft] K3S master power?
