[Elecraft] K3 HI-TEMP ALARM

[je1trv at a1club.net]

Hi folks!
Thank you for suggestions.

In my previous post, I forgot to say that my K3 works without hi-temp
alarm after warming up (about 30min or so without transmit just receiving
status).

So, it's just the same with Jaako's case.
My shack temp was around 15C these days.

hmmm...
