[Elecraft] KX1 VFO noise

Hi, Mike.

I only ever hear VFO "clicking" when there is a very strong adjacent signal.

For example one time I was using a 44ft doublet at 30ft at a campsite,
and I was operating on 30m, around 10.120MHz.  Suddenly a very very
strong commercial RTTY station started up around 10.130MHz.  Now when
I tune from 10.120MHz down to 10.110MHz I get "faint clicks" as I
tune.  If I tune from 10.120MHz up to 10.130MHz, the clicking got
stronger.

So I assume it's something connected to the AGC?

I don't know if that helps :)
