[Elecraft] K3 Disabling VOX on CW.

[Don Wilhelm]

Ian,

I can confirm that there is no RF.  The Firmware Field Test group 
brought this up in Feb '09.  At that time Wayne said he would look at a 
mechanism to activate only sidetone, but not KEYOUT, but he did say that 
it would be quite involved to change it - it is therefore very low on 
the list, so you will just have to listen to the relays in the amp 
chatter for the time being (maybe for a lengthy time).

73,
