Have you got VFO NR enabled? Not sure, but maybe this is causing the effect you are observing.
If you turn VFO NR off, and get "tuning noise", then take a look at this application note:
http://www.elecraft.com/manual/KX3%20Tuning%20Noise%20Mod%20rev%20B3.pdfIf you have the latest firmware, then enabling RX SHFT=8kHz no longer prevents you from using Dual Watch feature, although it will prevent use of the roofing filter. As you get experience with the radio you'll work out the optimum settings under various conditions.
