[Elecraft] Suggested KX3 "upgrade"

[Jim Sheldon]

Any button will definitely stop it, but (and this includes the K3, K3S, 
KX3 and possibly the KX2 as well) oft times you will get a partial (dot 
or dash) sent even when pressing a button.  Even when calling CQ looking 
for a general QSO this can be annoying and confusing to both the sending 
station and any station listening/planning on answering the CQ.  It 
definitely is not exclusive to "running" in a contest. It bugs me as 
well and I am not a contester.

The original poster's request is certainly reasonable and I suspect this 
has bugged a lot of people (myself included) for a long time but most of 
us didn't want to endure the "use N1MM" and other similar replies having 
no real bearing on the original request.
