It sounds like a switching power supply, such as in a charger or device

If you can do it, turn off your house breakers one at a time to see if
if it's in your house.

Static electricity is YOUR problem, not the K3's. If you are rubbing
your feet over a rug, spray it with static spray. Or ground yourself
on a little bit of static pad that you put there for the purpose. Do

What can I do to eliminate the static electricity problem with K3? Every
time I touch the main VFO (A) knob the display goes dark, audio goes off,
frequency changes among other things. After about 5 seconds it recovers but
somewhat off frequency. Just a little foot shuffling will develop enough
Thank you!!

I'll be getting back to PSK31 with my K2 and was wondering if there is a
place to pick up fixed audio output for input into my PC's sound card. It's
been a while but I seem to recall that I used to pick it from from the
external speaker jack which, of course, isn't fixed.

To chase it out, first lower that St L menu parameter to something more

Rich told me he was having trouble sending this to the reflector but it is
such valuable advice and works so well I want to share it with the group.
I find even the DUPE warnings now come on the main computer speaker even
while sending PSK31 on the USB sound card. My IMD meter reads -29 to -33

I had the same thing happen several times. I'd call QRL? on what for me
was a totally open frequency and get a "RR" reply from someone way off

guy was a full 500 Hz away and he still thought I'd be bothering him.

It has no center frequency. I reacts to the signals and noise it is

I have my filters centered on 625 Hz and the denoiser appears to favor 700

Makes me have to run RIT to pick out the weak signals with the denoiser on.
