[Elecraft] Computer Boot Up Keys the K3S

[dmoes at nexicom.net]

 nothing new here  My K3 does this as well

the computers serial port will toggle the DTR and RTS several times 
during the boot process.   some computers more or less.   My laptop 
will hold it on until I launch  a program that accesses the port like 
VSPE or a logging program.

the solution.  you could disable keying from the RTS or DTR in the 
menues  but if you are using that to say send CW from your computer 
that is a poor option.

My solution is this.  I either turn off the K3 when the computer boots 
or hold the TX TEST  to disable transmit. untill the computer has 
completed the boot.
