  I just went through this. Are you by any chance using an MFJ-434 Voice
  Keyer? If so that is what is causing the problem.  If not, I would be
  looking at the mike cable.

  If you are using the MFJ434 you need to change the jumpers to the =
alternate
  Yaesu position in the manual. If that's the case and you don't have =
the
  info, let me know and I can send it to you.

  73,
  Bill

  I recently purchased a FT-1000 MP Field from HRO in Atlanta and =
exchanged
  the rig because the shuttle jog ring switch would not detent back to =
the
  home position. HRO sent me a second rig and it has the same problem. =
Both
  rigs were new out of the box. The problem occurs when the ring switch =
is
  rotated CCW and the switch does not return back to it's centered =
position.
  The frequency keeps shifting down. The problem is intermittent and is =
most
  noticeable when operating CW, AM or RTTY. The cause appears to be the
  improper position of the encoder switch. With the jog ring sitting in =
the
  centered position the switch is off center to the right and starts =
tuning
  down in frequency.

  If anyone has heard of this problem before and has any suggestions for =
a
  solution I'd appreciate an email.
