[Elecraft] K3: TX INHIBIT error

[ab2tc]

Hi,

K3 #82 has a new home here in Central New York. I am having a blast with it
in the WPX contest.

It has developed a minor problem. After a while, the TX icon below the [A]
display label sometimes starts flashing and the radio will not transmit. If
I use the XMIT button to key it, the message TX INHIBIT is shown in the B
display. Turning radio off and back on instantly cures the problem (haven't
found any other way). I doubt if anything is overheating, I am only using
SSB with a relatively low duty cycle.

Note that the radio is *not* in TEST mode as suggested by some at the Yahoo
forum. The symptoms are different as the radio will not enter transmit mode
at all. I hope this is not anything serious. It does look like this will
only happen when the radio has been on for several hours, not necessarily
transmitting a lot.
