Steve, I've heard it, on occasion, as far back as 2007. As I posted earlier, I believe it's either the acoustic side effect of a coil voltage shift (there are *many* relays running on the 12 V line), or a very minor T/R timing window, far too short to switch a relay. It is not a problem. However, if I can get my rig to make the sound again, I'll put an o'scope on each relay's coil drive line to see if there's a tiny timing glitch. 73, Wayne N6KR --- http://www.elecraft.com ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
