[Elecraft] K3 - KDVR bug?

[Jack Brabham]

  I have a highly intelligent VOX system that always does what I want, 
when I want...., it's called a foot-switch.

You can hear good examples of VOX operation by monitoring 14.070, hardly 
an hour goes by without hearing someones dog barking, kids yelling, or 
an incoming honey-do request.

I'd vote for a CONFIG option to completely disable VOX in SSB so I don't 
accidentally turn it on when using the band switch, as has happened a 
few times.
