[Elecraft] K2 - NOISY POLLING

[Lou Roux]

Hank and all,

I've had the same polling noise and the S meter would flicker with each 
poll when using any logging program, not loud but still there. Now, you 
suggestion worked like a champ, just tucked the ribbon up out of the way 
and no more nothing! I wonder if there's a more elegant fix like 
sheilding of some sort.

Thanks a bunch,

Lou - W6UR
