K2 - intermittant noise on 60 meters

Hans Bonnesen
After reinstalling the internal battery in my K2, a new and hitherto never heard
intermittant noise is now heard in display mode.
It appears as one every second.
Could that be noise from the charging circuit
entering the recently installed KDSP2 unit.
Any clues to this ??

Hans,

I believe that noise is the "ticking" of the Real Time Clock in the
KDSP2.  It will only occur when you tap DISPLAY or one of the DSP menus.
It should not be heard in normal operation.
