[Elecraft] KX1 VFO noise

[Uli DF5SF]

Hello Mike
I have only some noise if I tap or hold the VFO knob, but nothing 
if I tune the knob.
No idea about the reason

I found that as the VFO was tuned a "popping or clicking" noise 
is heard each time the display moves.  I seem to recall seeing 
this mentioned by the group but I can't find a reference.

Any ideas?  External battery voltage is approximately 12.4 volts. 
  Internal batteries also mimic the noise.  Thanks,  Mike K4ELV
