My K3 s/n 559 running 4.39 does -not- exhibit this behavior. As far as I can
recall, it never has. Using Koss and Yamaha phones here. On what bands/under
what conditions? Is it possible you are actually coupling some kind of RF
(not necessarily ham transmissions, but something else in the house/shack)
back into the rig from within your environment via the phones lead?
