In regards to proper grounding etc.: I think it is safe to say that K3 owners 
have a very good grasp of what is needed to construct and operate a proper 
station - safety and RF wise.

I do, yet still went back over every last connector/connection/lug, etc. 
Everything is locked down properly here. No baluns, good coax, and everything 
is mechanical and soldered along the entire antenna routes. Yet, the problem 
continues. Perhaps the most disconcerting part is that my other auto 
tuners/rigs do not exhibit this difficulty. Perhaps the KAT500 is seeing 
something the others do not.

The difficult part is never knowing when the tuner will take off and the fact 
that MANUAL selection does not appear to make any difference. I have been using 
MANUAL for a couple of months. I do not see that it has made any difference in 
occurrences. The instances of "run-away" are random and it is usually days 
between events.
