[Elecraft] [K3 Remote] Audio Dropout switching SUB on/off

[Rick Tavan N6XI]

Ah, that explains why this seemed like a relatively new phenomenon! I
recently taught myself to return those controls to zero when leaving the
remote site in order to prevent the remote connection from starting up with
non-zero noise regardless of the position on the control K3's controls.
Using the position of the controls on the remote K3 at start-up is OK,
although not what I would have done. Reverting to it every time the SUB
goes on or off is just plain wrong. Is a fix in the domain of Elecraft or
microbit?

Thanks, Iain.
