[Elecraft] QSK pops

[Cranz (Nick) Nichols]

Yes.

I use both the ANT1 and ANT2 connectors on my K3 with a 40M EDZepp 
connected via a balun to ANT2.  I suspect a static discharge from that 
antenna.

Last week, during the CWOPs mini-test @ 1900Z it knocked out the CWT 
feature until I re-booted the K3.  I plan a simple test, once it gets a 
little dryer here.

Other suggestions appreciated.
