Marv,

Are you using computer control of the K3S and power on the computer at 
nearly the same time as the K3S?  If you have the PTT-KEY menu set to 
anything other than Off - Off, that can occur as the computer tests the 
com ports.

Other than that, the K3S is detecting a key, paddle, or PTT closure when 
it is powered up.  You just have to find out which one.  Unplug all of 
them and plug them in one at a time (powering on after each one is 
plugged) to reveal which one is causing the error.
Don't forget the microphone jack.

73,
Don W3FPR
