The KPOD is subject to spills etc. Just like a keyboard. Spills onto the pad can create issues. Amazing no one has mentioned this potential cause.

Double triggering, not triggering, sending the wrong buttons macro. It's getting worse. Looks like the hardware is not up to the task. I wonder if Elecraft has improved the quality of performance on this item. I have had two bad ones so far and this one is probably out of warranty. I guess it's worth sending it in for repair?

The interesting thing is that it is so intermittent. Probably messes up about 2% of the time.

Is it possible that an external supply might be causing problems? My new K Pod works fine on K3 s/n 0063 from internal power.
