[Elecraft] Paddle for K3

[n4lq]

There is an impedance mismatch between the Elecraft Hex Key and the K3 
causing it to produce a ghost signal on harmonically related bands. I 
believe this is a firmware bug in the paddle and am asking Elecraft to look 
into this at once! I have tried to download the latest beta firmware for 
this paddle from the FTP server but my Macintosh which runs Firefox ver. 
br549 begins to send alternate dits and dahs. I am upset over the total lack 
of support here.
BTW: I find that my Windom antenna works better on CW than on SSB. Could 
this the short and long halves of the antenna be the cause?
