I've been enjoying my new KX3, finally hitting the paddle after meaning to 
learn code for years and years.  It's really fun and the narrow DSP filtering 
is really easy on the ears.

Anyway I have noticed, that when I have been working portable (with wires 
radiating from the screw where I have grounded the rig), that I tend to hear 
occasional pops, very loud pops that blow my ears off if using headphones. It 
seems to be related to the antenna moving (phonics?) but sometimes they happen 
even if it is still.  Has anybody else encountered this issue?  Is there 
something I am missing?

Another issue that I have had is with iSDR.  It works great as a waterfall 
chart and such, but the audio quality is just awful.  No matter what the iPad's 
volume is set to, the sound is very overdriven and crunchy.  If I tune the 
radio to a station and listen to it through the speaker in the radio, or phones 
hooked to the radio, it sounds fine. However, when the iPad demodulates the 
same signal it is just awful.  For now I have just forgotten about demodulating 
with the iPad and am just using it as a simple panadapter.

Great radio and I can't wait for the filter module to get here!
