Greetings:  I just subscribed although I've been an Elecraft customer for a 
long time (K1, K2 with all accessories, etc). I built a KX3 over the Christmas 
holidays and am just now getting a chance to use it.  2 questions..... Is it 
normal to have noise that is "tuneable"  especially across 40 meters?  (that is 
is is frequency specific.... with the antenna DISCONNECTED)?  It raises the 
s-meter one or 2 units when tuning.. This is NOT noise from the local area.    
Also, my unit seems to be "microphonic" in that if I lightly tap the case a LOT 
of crackling comes from the speaker.  This seems to get much worse if I don't 
have the case screws tight.  I am a very experienced builder and Motorola bench 
tech so am not new to RF.  Any help would be appreciated.  THANKS!  Allen, W0OUU
