K3: scanning problem

jh3sif
After making some scanning operation, VFO A tuning response becomes something strange when I make the tuning operation with K-Pod main dial. Tuning is not smooth and sometimes frequency hops or do not change. With K3 main dial, the tuning is no problem and as smooth as before making scanning operation.
This strange response continues until power off and on K3 itself.

K3 Owner’s Manual says “If the sub receiver is on the same band as the main receiver, and the sub is turned on, you can tune VFO B/sub manually while VFO A/main is scanning.” However, VFO B (K3 sub dial) response is very very slow and sometimes VFO B frequency does not change or suddenly hops.

Both symptoms are very similar. I guess these come from same K3 main CPU program issue.
