Stephen,
Yes, a poorly connected BNC shell could act as a mixer itself and cause
all sorts of wierd happenings - especially within a strong RF field as
exists in Europe with those BIG broadcast stations.

Hello Don
I certainly wouldn't want to give the impression that I'm not really pleased
with the KX-1 because it's given me a huge amount of pleasure in a
relatively short length of time.
I think I may have hit upon something- the KX-1 received a knock when
camping and I have now discovered that the knock broke both solder joints
for the ground connection on the bnc socket. Looking at them they seemed
dry anyway and now they have been resoldered the problem has all but
disappeared. I'm not looking for a perfect transceiver of course, but the
BC stations were fairly intrusive and if I've got that sorted now then I
shall be happy.
Thanks to all for the advice received!
