[Elecraft] K2 key clicks

     I loaned my K2/100 to a die-hard, serious CW contester last weekend 
to operate in the CW Sweepstakes.  My rig is completely up-to-date on all 
the suggested mods, and I use it frequently on SSB and CW DXing with no 
problems.  Ninety minutes into the CW contest, he had to swap it out for a 
Kenwood TS-850, because he was getting complaints about key clicks.  

     There was some discussion on the reflector back in September about a 
cure for the K2 key click problem, but I can't recall seeing any definitive
published fix, and there does not seem to be anything I can easily find
on www.elecraft.com.  

     Is the fix forthcoming soon?
