[Elecraft] "Spasmodic" CW with 3.41

Greetings--

I discovered tonight, having downloaded and installed 3.41 a few nights 
ago, that when connected to HRD, my K3, #859, has problems with the 
keying circuit, regardless if I'm using my paddle or my straight key.

While in TX Test mode, when connected to HRD, dits and dahs become 
"spasmodic" with dahs occasionally elongated or cut off short.  The dits 
will occasionally "miss"...not be there when expected.

When disconnected from HRD, normal operation resumes.  Now, I only tried 
this on TX Test and not into the air or dummy load.

When I reverted back to 3.30, the problem vanished...ceased to exist, 
connected to HRD or not.

Has anyone else discovered this?
