This is exactly what's happening, and we're looking into a possible change in the way we handle it.
For now, you can leave VFO auto-tracking turned off when listening to WWV (tap CWT until the 'T' icon turns off). You can tune the signal in manually until the PLL locks (+/- 10 Hz), or tap SPOT to have it track the signal long enough to lock. 73, Wayne N6KR On Nov 16, 2009, at 8:20 AM, Jim Wiley wrote: > This problem may (or may not) be caused by selective fading, causing > the > "real" WWV carrier to disappear for a moment, whereby the K3 then > locks > up to one of the sidebands, perhaps from the 100 Hz time data, then > returns to the main carrier when it again is strong enough.
