[Elecraft] K3 TX Inhibit

I recall a couple of months or so back there was vociferous discussion 
about TX Inhibit being absolutely vital for linear amp switching. I use 
this on my FT1kMP / Acom 1000 combo. Now that it has been included I 
wonder if anyone is using it and where they get the +5v from for the 
pull-up resistor.

I got some "plops" report over last weekend in the CQWW160CW contest and 
suspect it was hot switching because I was using VOX as I hadn't 
incorporated Comm PTT at that stage. I think this would solve the 
problem but I would also like to include TX Inhibit since the Acom 1000 
allows for that.
