[Elecraft] RF POT (K2)

[Indy]

My audio cuts out momentarily whenever I rotate the RF gain pot.  I suppose the RF gain pot is generating noise (dirty) and that noise is triggering the AGC.  I do find that if I rapidly rotate the knob back and forth through perhaps ninety degrees a dozen times or more, the problem is temporarily reduced.

1)  Do others have this problem?

2)  what is the recommended solution?

I have never done the AF pot mod because it is not noisy at all.

tnx,

fred
