[Elecraft] K3 - Dead RX after TX

Hi All,

I have been experiencing a strange problem on my K3 where the 
receiver is sometimes 'dead' after transmit. This seems to be tied 
in with the MCU control of the DSP.

To prove that this is either unique or not to my unit, I would be 
grateful if fellow K3 owners could try this quick test.

In particular I would like to hear from Beta Testers as to whether 
they can replicate this problem with the next (unreleased) 
firmware.

POWER
80m LSB 3780
NOR
LO CUT=0.15
SAV ALT1
NOR
TX ON/OFF
ALT1
TX ON/OFF
Receive may be dead at this point

If not continue with
Select USB
ALT1
TX ON/OFF
Receive dead

Switching bands, modes or NOR always restores receiver.

Many thanks in advance.
