[Elecraft] K3/0 TO K3 NOT WORKING?

When you power your K3/0 down, does the remote K3 turn all the way off 
[i.e. go totally dark]?

Who is beeping -- K3/0 or RRC?  Control-end or remote-end?

Does it do this *every* time [i.e. totally repeatable]?

Is your control path *really* "through the Internet ... IAW does your 
remote-end RRC have an IP address outside the sub-net the control-end 
RRC is on? ... or are they both DHCP-assigned by your router?

The control-end RRC will beep at you [out the SP jack to whatever is 
plugged into it] if the remote-end RRC/K3 is already on.  It's a busy 
signal to another user.
