KPA-1500- occassional high SWR flashes

Elecraft mailing list
Noticing the same "occassional flashing of yellow and red in the LED SWR string" on KPA-1500 Serial #167 while driving the amp with a K3S.  (actual SWR is 1.1:1)

This is common with the new amp. Elecraft is working on a firmware update
to correct it -- hopefully. Just ignore flashing LEDs for now.
