[Elecraft] K3-Front panel shut down question.

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

The danger with the K3 seems to be if power is removed while it's actively
writing new data to memory. Early in the K3 program several people who
switched power off at the supply quickly reported finding the firmware
"corrupted" in various ways upon restoring power because of that.

Certainly no physical damage was done, but it is rather inconvenient to
reload all the firmware.
