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

[Jeff Wandling W7BRS]

Since 2.57 to 2.67:

My K3/100 has always clicked when it powered on.  I thought it was just the 
relays resetting or some initialization.  Is the click on the speaker or in the 
relays on the board(s) ?

Upon boot up the K3 also keys the amp for a split second too.

I just assumed that in the boot up initialization this was intentional.

One thing that seems odd but acceptable is when I insert the headphone jack, 
the audio reroute from the speaker to the headphones is not instant. It doesn't 
need to be... it seems like a half a second or so delay. NBD.

ps. OT:  For a weak CW op like myself, the K3 has given me the gumption to go 
after some DX on 40 and I tell you -- it's wonderful to work DX with the CW 
decoder.  I can copy, but with the decoder I don't make as many mistakes on 
reading calls.  And, I admit time to time I turn to Test Tx mode and just 
practice sending 5NN TU DE W7BRS at faster speeds to get my fingers muscle 
memory working.  Last night there was a E51KAJ on 40 and I swore I got her call 
right, but I have no idea who the QSL should go to. hihi!
