[Elecraft] Sudden K3 AGC pop-off after adding P3

[Alan Sewell N5NA]

This is a problem not only for HRD but any software in which the AGC 
status is polled continuously.  I frequently use CQ/X by NO5W and had 
the same problem.  Chuck turned off the AGC polling in CQ/X and the 
problem no longer occurs.  Of course, now the AGC status can't be shown 
in his remote interface.

I sent Wayne, N6KR, a couple of log files from portmon back in July 
showing what was happening but so far I haven't seen any updates on this.

73,  Alan  N5NA
