[Elecraft] K3 delayed sidetone?

[Tom Redfern]

I should pontificate a bit.

Bluetooth has a slight time delay.  You don't notice it when listening 
to CW.  When you send, it becomes a delay between key down and sound in 
your headset.  It'll drive you crazy and you'll think there's something 
wrong with your radio.

Sounds like that might be the problem.
