That message means that for some reason or another. the K3 is detecting
a key closure on power up.
Check your key and the contact spacing first, and then proceed to
anything that may be causing that message.
Don't overlook a stuck PTT switch, which can cause the same message.
If all else fails, unplug the key and the microphone - it should come up
without the message - then plug them in one at a time, power up and see
which is causing the
ERR message.
If you are using a straight key with a mono plug. change it to a stereo
plug and use the KEY jack on the K3 rather than the paddles jack.
