I don't think so, for the following reason: there are lots of connections to
the PC in the shack, but disconnecting the serial port connection to the KRC2
makes it disappear completely. And it's got to be a super powerful
signal...remember, what I'm hearing is not a signal from the PC, but rather a
spurious signal produced in the K2 by a very large out-of-band signal. I don't
think the CMOS clock oscillator would be that strong.
