[Elecraft] K3 timeout??

[James Sarte]

Dear all,

 

I've recently noticed that if I leave the K3 on for some time (perhaps 10
minutes or more; I never verified), the VFO knob becomes inactive.  In other
words, spinning it will not change the frequency unless another button is
pressed first.  So far I've been able to "un-freeze" the VFO by hitting the
lock button or the microphone key.  I've never noticed this behavior before.
Is it something new?
