For those who do not want to load beta firmware, you will have to
tolerate the problem until 5.54 (or later) is moved to production status.
For those who are cautious about beta firmware, if you want the
function, go ahead and download it (follow the Beta Firmware
Installation instructions), and run it. You can always retract to the
production level.
At Elecraft, Beta firmware is not "flaky" code. It simply implements
the latest upgrades and is out "for test". If problems are discovered
with it (what, if anything, was broken by the changes), then it will be
superseded by another Beta version. When a good Beta version has been
determined, it will be promoted to production status. In other words,
the beta version is not "in development" and will not be changed with
the same release number. It has already gone through initial Alpha testing.
So for those who want the added function(s) more quickly than that Beta
testing process allows, download and install the beta. If you find
problems, report them - that problem seeking/reporting is the intent of
beta firmware.

5.50/1.25/2.87 is the latest firmware release. 5.54/1.26/2.88 is Beta
firmware. That's the issue.

My K-Pod with the latest firmware release does not show such symptom. So D4 is
always OFF unless sending command to set D4 on.
MCU/FPF/DSP is 5.54/1.26/2.88.
