TX Inhibit

[Martin]

Elecrafters,
this has been discussed a long time ago, is there any news about this:

When in TEST MODE the TX led is flashing to inform you the tx can not be
engaged.

When TX INHIBIT is ON . the TX led is flashing all the time, even when
TX is not inhibited. Is it only me or are others puzzled too?

Do you really mean that the red TX LED is flashing?

According to the manual, it is normal for the "TX" symbol on the LCD
display to flash continuously if TX Inhibit has been selected.

But WHY? The continuous flashing serves no particular purpose - but much
worse, it hides the important warning that Test Mode may have been
activated inadvertently (and who hasn't done that?)

Please can Elecraft remove that feature.

Sorry, i meant the TX sign on the right side of the display, between VFO
A and B letters, not the TX Led.
