K3 V310 Glitch

alsopb
It seems the CW pitch is getting lost during power off.

Happend 3 times so far.   Start sending and monitor puts out something
like a 1 or 2 KHz pitch.   Press pitch control and it returns to set
value and acts noramlly for the rest of the session.  (Haven't a clue
what "pitch" the rig is transmitting on during these events.)  The RX
acts normally always--the CW signal peak at my normal 530Hz setting.

The firmware and all the DSP tables have been reloaded, with new
firmware program, several times.

Yes, it happens here, but only after pressing TUNE. This was reported
on the list last Friday, with a response from Wayne stating that it
would be fixed right away.

I have experienced this also on both of my K3's #806 and #1055.  The
symptoms Brian describes match what I have seen here.

Already fixed and being tested. I'm hoping to do a beta release of rev
3.11 tomorrow. If anyone is inconvenienced by the sidetone pitch-change
problem and would like to try 3.11 now, please email me directly.
