[Elecraft] K3 Power On

G'day,

A while ago I reported occasional hang when powering on the K3. 
Lock up which needed power down and on again to recover.

I think I know what causes it.  I switch everything off when not in 
use and it is very easy for me to switch on the PSU (switcher) and 
then hit the K3 power button within 1-2 seconds.  If I slow down on 
powering the K3, maybe all of four to five seconds after PSU switch 
on, all is OK.

So maybe it just takes a few seconds for the K3 supply rails and 
logic to settle when first powered.

Regards,

Mike VP8NO
