[Elecraft] Operator error?

[r miles]

Since I got the KPA this has happened three times. I get so used to 
being almost instant go I may be too fast.
K3 on & I see a DX spot. I hit the on switch on the KPA. I push the  K3 
RIT  on in case I want to use it. With in 2 or 3 seconds I hit the 
operate button on the KPA & send a Dit. KPA red lights. I punch the KPA 
to standby & take a breath. I go to operate on the KPA  & all is normal. 
If I don't punch on RIT this hasn't occured. Am I just too fast & the K3 
is getting too many commands at once. There's no  damage just a wake up 
call to the operator. All this happens in just 3  or 4 seconds.
Operator error?
