Anything that squeezes or otherwise distorts the K1 bottom cover plate (such as when the case is grabbed during repositioning) will cause a small frequency shift (I see well below 100 Hz), due to the change of metal bottom cover plate position near the LC VFO circuitry on the RF PCB. The frequency returns to original when the pressure is released on the bottom cover. 73, Mike / KK5F _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
