Dana:
I had a problem w/ a chirp on one of my radios. It was a s/n 8xxx with the
old synthesizer. I first noticed "dead spots", primarily on 40 and 160.
These dead spots would be a specific point. There were several and they
were repeatable. I got some reports of bad chirps and figured out that the
chirps were only when I was very close in frequency to one of the dead
spots. I bought a new K3SYNA (which I was going to do anyway) and
everything was fine.
I never did any further failure analysis, eg swapping the "bad" syn into
other radios, etc.

Let me give this another try. Anyone out there ever have an issue with a
CW Chirp from a K3? Mine seems to be intermittent, it's not always
present. I've got a spare K3, I guess I will drive out to the station and
swap out the one there now. If it's not the power supply, the only other
thing I can think of is an issue with the KSYN3 board. I can try the
calibration Wayne mentioned in his 2017 post.
