[1000mp] MKV QSK Relay

The Alpha 87A uses PIN diode switching---no relays. The 87A's low
voltage/low current TX/RX control does not require use of the Mk V xmit
relay. If our correspondent uses direct amplifier control instead of the Mk
V relay, and the problem goes away, then it is the Mk V relay. If it does
not go away, then it is likely to be a small internal relay in the RX front
end. If so, the problem is similar to what several of us have observed in
our MP's.
