[Elecraft] Other strange KPA100 behavior

I have another funny phenomenon related to the KPA100 and the DSP. I mentioned
it before, but no one commented. I would like someone to check and see if they
notice it too. Here it is:
1) The KPA100 must be activated (11 watts will do it, more power doesn't change it).
2) The DSP must be working (not in bypass mode), but the nr can be on or off and
the bandwidth doesn't seem to matter.
There is a loud click when the receiver UNMUTES on 160 meters. Is is slightly
weaker on 80 meters, and faintly heard on 30 meters. It is not detectable on
all other bands. It's easy to hear if you lengthen the t-r delay.
I can't imagine why you need both the DSP and the KPA100 to cause this!
