My ESD concerns started when I had completed my K2. There were occasions upon turning on my K2 that my finger approaching the VFO knob would cause my K2 to lock up. (BTW, the rig was well grounded.) As it turns out, it was my finger approaching the mike connector that caused the problem. I suspended two small springs between the two mike connector mounting screws to ground the floating mike connector and eliminate the ESD. ESD is very real for sure! Thank goodness, grounding the mike connector cured this problem. Roy Morris W4WFB
