[Elecraft] Receiver slow to recover ?

[Joe Planisky]

This sounds like it might be related to a problem reported by K4SO  
yesterday (and reproduced by myself).  Different triggering  
circumstances, but the symptoms of the receiver coming back with low  
sensitivity that is fixed by hitting the key again are the same.

Search for a topic of "K3 3.30 FW 80M split-strange behavior" for that  
original report.
