[Elecraft] KX1 Acting Up

[thomaskd at rcn.com]

This is a  bit embarrassing.  I did the solder reflow for the MCU and it got back to normal as I posted in my other email.

A few minutes later..it did it again but this time I had it hooked up to a tuner and saw the lights flashing on the tuner like it was trying to transmit.  Huh?  What was going on?

Then all of a sudden I realized that I had plugged the headphones into the keyer jack.  Duh.  Take that out and all is well.  I was so impressed with myself that I figured out what solder to reflow and fix it...then the truth comes out.

BTW...I got an email from Jerry (WA2DKG) who guessed what I was doing with the headphones in the keyer jack.  It was a good call on his part...and I have to wonder if he had the same issue!

The good part is that I can get back to building and installing the ATU board.
