[Elecraft] K3 popping noise during QSK

[Julius Fazekas]

Thanks Vic!

I had suspected that I wasn't the first to notice it, but haven't been following the reflector very closely for a while.

Hope to catch you (and anyone else) in ARRL 160 this weekend. The K3 hears real good ;o)

73 & GL,

Julius
