[Elecraft] BEEP

[Wayne Burdick]

Yes, your battery voltage is at the warning threshold. You can change  
the threshold in the CONFIG:BAT MIN menu entry, but I recommend  
keeping at 11.0 V. The K3 is still usable down to as low as about 9.5  
or 10 V, although max power output will be scaled back.
