Mitch,
Are you certain it is coming from the K3? I have conditions like that
on some bands at my workbench where I have amplifier computer speakers.
Since it is not constant, and I don't operate from there, I ignore it,
but I would chase it down and kill it if it were at the operating position.
73,
