[K3 powers off]

I got a new K3 feature for Christmas. Today just sitting here with the K3 on, I heard some relay chatter and the rig turned off. I turned it back on, and after about an hour, a repeat performance. I wasn't doing any transmitting.

Re: [K3 powers off]

Elecraft's new feature to reduce emissions from power plants when not
using the radio?

Re: [K3 powers off]

No, you weren't "transmitting" and you have a *trans*ceiver. If you are just
going to listen, you should use a three transistor, solar-powered receiver.

You've been warned that the biggest threat to this country is global
warm...sorry...climate change and you must do your part. So NSA and it's Chinese
partners saw that you were only listening and shut you down.

Re: [K3 powers off]

QRR ? Low power receive?

I thought Farmland Security handeled that.
