[Elecraft] K3-TX "stutters" on power up

[Fred Jensen]

Hmmm ... my original message was on 31 Oct -- Long Delay Echo?

Problem was the PTT-KEY setting -- PTT was set to DSR and it gets 
asserted intermittently as the radio and computer USB port argue when 
the radio comes on.  Apparently the radio eventually wins because it 
stops.  OFF-OFF suppresses the argument.
