[P3] VFO A cursor shifts after TUNE

alorona
Why does my P3 do this?:

In LSB mode, whenever I go into TUNE for more than about six or seven seconds,
upon hitting the XMIT button to come back out of TUNE the VFO A cursor has
shifted into an incorrect position. (Instead of showing an LSB position below
center frequency [in this particular case] it shifts slightly to the right to
straddle the center frequency-- incorrect.)

I can hit the A/B button twice to return the cursor to the correct position.

I've noticed this in a number of firmware revs going back a couple of months.

Can anybody duplicate this behavior? If it's a known bug, no response is needed.

Thanks very much,

Al  W6LX

Al,

I get the same behaviour, I'd just never noticed it before.  I'm running
4.22 on the K3 and 00.49 on the P3.

Elecraft is aware of this anomaly.  My P3 does the same thing.  This happens when the TUNE button is pushed on the K3.  This cursor shift problem should be cured in a future firmware update.  Roy Morris  W4WFB
