My K1 has developed a glitch.  Sometimes, while tuning, the displayed
frequency will suddenly jump down about 10-15 kHz, then return to the
correct frequency.  I hear some static in the headphones at the same time.
The jump isn't caused by tapping the case, only moving the tuning knob.  It
doesn't seem related to a specific "spot" on the pot.  Without rotating the
tuning pot, there is no frequency instability at all.

Ideas?  Curt KB5JO
