Bill,

If this is the same thing we were talking about a few days ago, I was able to pretty much eliminate mine by replacing the BNC cable for the IF input.

I'm in Fixed Tune and Fix Track mode on my P3 and when I tune the K3 the spikes would move with my display. You could never catch up to them or hear them in the band pass. Annoying, but not a major deal. But like I said, a few of us found the BNC cable at fault and I think one op mentioned sanding the cabinet ground areas of the P3 to improve connectivity and this helped as well.

I have spikes (low intensity and wide) that do not move when the K3 is
tuned across the band. I assume they are internally generated, else they
would be tunable. Nothing should be displayed except actual RF signals
that can be tuned to.

They are not a big deal, but it is disappointing to see them on such an
expensive device. Am I the only user seeing these?

As always, reply only to the reflector - to allow others to learn also.

Thanks,

Bill W2BLC
