Hi,

First time I have heard about this. How much frequency shift are we talking about here? A fraction of a Hz, 10Hz? I have certainly never noticed this, but of course on speech anything less than 10Hz is practically inaudible unless you do a USB/LSB comparison on an AM station.

Guys,

I've mentioned this caviet before:

The way the K3 implements the passband shift, the same signal, with the same VFO setting, will have a different audio beat note if the SHIFT control is changed. *
