[Elecraft] KX1 display flicker after activating SCAN mode?

I hit upon the scan mode by accident with my brand new KX1. Reading the 
manual it appears the memories are the scan boundaries. I've not set 
these, so they would be whatever default.

I've noticed that while scanning, and even after scanning, the RF I hear 
is reduced from what I had heard before. And the display flickers, for 
example if it's displaying 2 it will flicker to 3.

It keeps doing this until I power cycle the radio. Then the RF/signal 
goes back to normal, and the display works OK.

Well, the decimal point seems to flicker once and awhile. I've double 
checked the solder joints, esp around the display and micro. Vibration 
does not cause the flicker either.

Normal stuff here?
