[Elecraft] K3 Initialization time

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Mine with the current firmware takes 3.7 seconds from power on, measured by
a stopwatch. At that point I'm hearing the signals so the DSP is fully
operational as well 

Now, if I could find a PC that boots that fast (no, not even an Apple beats
that...)

Gentlemen:

I noticed that several of the other highly computerized radios on the market
have a substantial time delay after power on before the radio is fully
operational (IC756Pro, IC7800, etc.).  Would some of the current K3 owners
please let me know how long before their radio display settles down and the
radio is fully operational?  Does this time vary according to certain
accessories being present or configuration options being chosen?  Thank you.
