[Elecraft] re ON-OFF on K3

[WILLIS COOKE]

My first thought on the matter is to agree with Fern,
but after thinking about it for a while, pressing the
POWER button is not so hard and it will allow the K3
to turn itself off on low voltage and protect your
battery for battery operations.  I have come to think
of this as a good feature even though I am not set up
for battery operation at this time.  It will also let
you know right away if you have a loose power
connection or a defective power supply.  I vote to
keep the K3 like it is.
