Bingo, finally (3rd cable I tried) found a good cable that cleared up
the problem.

Check the connections on the BNC cable between your K3 and P3 and
re-seat them. Also, if you have an extra BNC-BNC cable, try replacing
this cable.
Also, if this BNC is run near switching power supplies etc. it can pick
up noise like this.

I have a 8-9 khz wide signal that follows my VFO A around. I saw this
on 160m and also in 10m this morning. I haven't checked the other bands.

No antenna was connected to the K3. The only cables connected to the
P3 were: Coax and RS232 from K3. I attached the RS232 to the computer
to get the snap shots, bet the signal did not change with it connected
to the computer or not.
Note: During the snapshots I bumped the VFO knob from 28.120 to
28.119.40 by mistake during the snapshots, but that doesn't have any
effect on the fact there is this big wide scary 8-9khz wide signal ~
30 khz down from VFO A that is tracking my main VFO.
What is going on, has my K-Line been invaded by something? If so what
and how do I fix it?
