Yes, I reported that one just after I got S/N 10105. It worked at home using the USB interface, but when I went to IOTA last year it powered up in TX mode when the USB lead was not connected. It took a few phone calls to sort it out, but once we knew what the problem was it was easy to get round.
I still have a problem here. If I configure the K3S to operate via the USB lead, then power down, remove the USB lead, power back up then set the config for PTT_KEY to be DTR-OFF, then the K3S immediately goes into TX and stays there until I re-connect the USB lead. It sounds as though there is still something not quite right with the keying logic yet.

I have no digital SW running or rig control at the time of power down. If I set PTT to DTR and power down for some period of time, PTT defaults back to OFF when power up. Always done that since day one. I thought there was some update done in latest firmware to PTT-KEY line to default those to OFF so when PC was restarted K3S would not go into TX?

WSJT not running – K3S not connected to PC. I still need to reset PTT-KEY after a power cycle – it always goes back to OFF-OFF. The same thing happens in USB or DATA modes.

Danny, Do a test without WSJT running. Set PTT key config to DTR - OFF, then cycle power on the K3S. Does that setting survive the power cycle? If so, it is not a K3S problem, look to the WSJT software for the solution. If it does not survive the power cycle, contact K3Support. 73, Don W3FPR On 5/23/2016 1:08 AM, danny.higgins wrote: > I have this on my K3S with the latest firmware.
