If your K3 is connected to your computer for logging or rig control
purposes, make certain that the ground of the K3 is adequately bonded to
the chassis of the computer.  I had a similar distortion issue on my K3
audio, and I had to go all the way down to a 10 inch length of RG-8 coax
braid for a bonding strap to make it completely go  away.
