[Elecraft] K3 Tune button, does not key a linear

Andrew,

The manual does not say anything about activating KEYOUT for a TUNE.  It 
does say that the K3 will transmit RF.  I presume the intent is to allow 
you to tune a manual antenna tuner.
If you need to tune a linear amp, I guess that behavior would be 
cumbersome, but you can always reduce the power and do a keydown to tune 
the amp.
I don't use TUNE myself.
