The KPOD is subject to spills etc. Just like a keyboard. Spills onto the pad 
can create issues.  Amazing no one has mentioned this potential cause.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K Pod Intermittently Errors

Using the K3s utility, the macros fire off 100% reliably so it's the pod switch 
buttons I guess. Double triggering, not triggering, sending the wrong buttons 
macro. It's getting worse. Looks like the hardware is not up to the task.
I wonder if Elecraft has improved the quality of performance on this item. I 
have had two bad ones so far and this one is probably out of warranty. I guess 
it's worth sending it in for repair?

Mine is also on internal power. The interesting thing is that it is so 
intermittent. Probably messes up about 2% of the time.

I wonder how the K Pod is powered. Is it possible that an external supply
might be causing problems?
My new K Pod works fine on K3 s/n 0063 from internal power.
