Strange Behavior on P3

w4ien
My P3 has started to exhibit some strange behavior since I installed the SVGA and TXMon options.  Every time I turn the VFO A the P3 acts like it is being overloaded and the display shows interference.  I have never noticed this before.  Has anyone seen this behavior before?  I am running a K3S with the P3.

Robin,

I certainly have not seen that behavior, but recommend you go over the
P3SVGA and P3TXMON option instructions.
Are all cables fully plugged in, and are the cables dressed inside like
what is shown in the diagrams?  You may have to devise some kind of
'clip or support' to keep the cables in place.  If I recall, I used a
length of wire to wrap around the cables for the P3SVGA to keep them in
place.  I do not have the P3TXMON option installed.
