[Elecraft] K3 - 2.73/1.98 Clicks on Power On

[Len, K3LJ]

Thanks for your email Don. I hope I wasn't repceived that I was complaining as mine was an observation. Like you said it's booting up just as our computers do and my Orion does exactly the same thing when it is booting up as well. 
Best 73 and have a Merry Christmas and a great New Year,

This is just a case of hearing the electronics become active.  Unlike my stereo equipment which mutes the output until all that switching on startup/shutdown is finished. I actually like to hear those sounds - it tells me that something really is happening.  I sit and wonder whether anything is happening with my stereo equipment when I first power it on, and I don't know if the power-on really worked OK until the 10 second timeout. 73, Don W3FPR Len, K3LJ wrote:
