Mitch,
Your brilliant mind is again on the case. I though a small shock
delivered to the paddle would be a help. But seriously, I do think that a
flashing delta frequency LED could help and I would like this option. I
have sinned and never want to do so again. It seems that I want the K3 to
keep me out of trouble. Well any reminder is welcome.
The Flashing Led has my vote - it is an option. Elecraft are great.

keydown
Joe, that is a great idea, but it doesn't go far enough. Some users
might switch off the test mode on purpose. In this case, the K3 should
induce an electric shock. Add some voice recognition software, so that
when the user says "UP" in simplex mode, the K3 self-destructs. ;-)
