If you are using DTR and/or RTS for PTT or keying, that will happen as
the OS tests the serial ports.
If you do not need that keying, turn it off in the K3 menu.
If you do need it, I would suggest putting a DB-9 A/B switch in the
serial line. Turn it to break the connection to the K3 during the PC
bootup cycle.

When booting up my PC connected to the K3 it keys the TX several times
during the bootup sequence, I imagine when initialising the various

Bridge to my PC auto start program list and it wants to see the K3 to
enable the connect port.
Is there a way to auto inhibit TX keying during PC bootup ( eg. placing the
TX into TEST mode)?
I believe there must be a way but can't find it as yet.
