Hi Paul,nice picture you have on qrz.Its very cold in this part of Florida today,just 32F.
Well I can tell you this about that wierd behavior,I do have exactly the same problem but not the way you have it,I tried to duplicate it acording what you said but it won't happen in my K3 #2192 but it happens sometimes when I someone ask me for a recording to hear how his station sounds,then when I play them back using my 1KW amp it look like the big amount of RF detected in my shack affect somehow the VCO or any source of freq,generating inside the K3 and drift the RX freq by 1.6 Khz exactly like yours do,but If I do the playback with less than 500W or with the K3 barefoot it will never happen.To solve the problem I have to recycle power on the radio and everything will come back to normal.
I never has reported this because its not a big deal for me anyway but now that you have reported this,I think Elecraft team should give us some advice of what to do IF they can duplicate the problem on their labs.
have a good new year celebration,73
