It is sensitive to electromagnetic fields (speaker, rotor control, and PS) if they are closer than about a foot or so. So is the K2. But mine isn't sensitive to orientation. Maybe orientation puts it closer to an em field on your operating desk.

If I pick it up or turn it upside down, I can hear it shift up or down in frequency. If I move a speaker near the rig (or a PS) it moves a lot. If I just leave it alone it stays right on frequency. Does this sound like normal behavior? - Keith KD1E - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
