I just checked again and the K3 *IS* showing "END" when the the K3 is
tuned out of band. Definitely no ERR TXF message, though.

Similar behavior here with K3 #202. However it only happens when in
VOX mode... not in PTT mode. No ERR TXF or END displayed. Red Tx LED
is on for about 1 second, probably less. I do see a jump in amps on
the K3 display to about 8 or so amps. I do have the 6 kHz filter
installed and enabled.

I confirmed on K3 #125 with V 2.76, the behavior described by KB8AP
below.
I also noted that the power supply jumps up to the level expected for
the power setting.
So I believe that it is attempting to transmit during the second or
so of the transient.
This is not a good thing. I do not have a 6 kHz filter installed.

Hi all,
I've just discovered something odd with my K3 (#1772). When I switch
mode from DATA to AM via the front panel Mode button, the rig tries
to transmit. The red TX light comes on momentarily and I get a ERR
TXF message (if in band) or an END message (if out of band) in the
VFO B area. I don't have the AM filter installed, so I don't think
anything is actually going out over the air, but it doesn't seem like
the rig should ever go into transmit on a mere mode change.
It ONLY happens when going from DATA to AM, not when going from FM to
AM or between any other modes in either direction. There is no mic
connected to the rig, nor anything connected to the rear panel mic or
line inputs. The only things connected to the rig are a paddle, an
external speaker, and the antenna. It happens whether in VOX or PTT
mode.
I first noticed it with MCU 2.67 (although I can't say if it happened
with earlier versions.) I've updated to the 2.76 beta release and it
still happens.
Anyone else see this?
