[Elecraft] KX1 v. TT R4020

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

A off-reflector comment by a PSK operator reminded me that letters are
sometimes dropped in PSK and, if the operator isn't watching the waterfall,
it's easy to lose the "K" and not realize the transmission has ended. He's
seen "PSE K" become common on PSK as a way of adding redundancy to signal
the end of the transmission. Another approach is to repeat the "K" as in
"KKK".
