[Elecraft] K2 spurious 'power' and 'speed' indications

I have noticed a small glitch in my K2 which seems to have occurred 
after I did the 'frequency walking' mod a little while back (one link 
to front panel pcb).

Very intermittently while I am turning the main tuning knob (and not 
catching the other knobs by mistake) the display momentarily changes 
to display either the 'power' or 'speed' settings (as if I had moved 
the relevant knobs).  It even did it once when I was not touching the 
rig at all.

I imagine this is something similar to the reason the 'frequency 
walking' mod was introduced.  Perhaps the power/keyer knobs are close 
to a transition of their A/D converter and the micro is incorrectly 
thinking they have been moved.  The power knob is always set at the 
5W position, and I don't use the internal keyer at all. Software 
2.01H.

Perhaps just a little annoyance, but has anybody else had this?
