Old synth boards or new?

First thing I would suggest is to turn the manual to the Calibration Procedures and if you have the old synthesizers, do the Synthesizer Calibration, followed by the Reference Oscillator calibration. If you have the new synths, then skip directly to the Reference Oscillator calibration (the new synths do not need calibration).

I am not certain that will fix it, but it certainly can do no harm. Periodically checking those calibrations is good for the "annual physical" of your K3.

Yeah that's a great subject line. So this weekend I was trying to operate kids 
day at 14.280MHZ I was told that I was actually at 14.275.01
I noticed on the P3 that between 14.272 and 14.285 the VFO lost control. The P3 
would start drifting with the K3 and it would smear across the screen. I 
wouldn't be able to hear anyone on frequency. If I tuned up and down they 
continued to sound like they were off frequency. This only happens between 
14.272 and 14.285

Going to try resetting and reloading firmware but not sure that's going help. 
Any ideas?
