Hi all, In CQWW this weekend I ran across a problem that's been plaguing me in previous contests too. With the K-pod connected to the radio (K3s) using the supplied cable I'm finding that the main VFO QSYs down about 100-200 Hz on a random basis. I tried loading the flat cable up with Mix 31 ferrites to no effect. I haven't thoroughly tested this on all bands, but it definitely occurred on 20 through 160. It was not a regular occurrence; maybe every 2-3 minutes it would happen. When I engage the VFO lock on the front panel of the radio it stops doing it.
I has also been know to shut the radio off once every few days when I touch the K-pod, which I'm attributing to static electricity. While I love the functionality of my K-pod, I had to take it offline due to the frequency excursions. I'd like to get a fix for this if at all possible.
