[Elecraft] Bug in Keyer?

Hi

Anyone else had a problem with the K2 internal CW keyer?

I have a fairly recent model of K2/100 #2751 (v2.02f).

I started using the internal keyer today and found that every now and then
the keyer locks up and emits a long D-A-H (@30wpm).

The keyer then seems to recover ok.

It's not easy to reproduce - it might happen twice in a 10 minute QSO.

It's nothing to do with "LO BATT" or RF getting into the radio 'cos the
problem occurs when not transmitting also ("TEST" mode).

I guess I'll go back to using my external keyer until someone can suggest a
fix for this...
