After a few months of relative inactivity, I went back last night to
continue building my KPA100,
and had the K2 on in the background. I actually thought it was a DSP
artifact, but it's there even with the DSP in bypass.
Tuning through a quiet band, I noticed as I tuned slowly across a CW signal,
I could clearly hear some "artifact" chirps or warbles with each increment
of the dial (even at the finest tuning rate). There are other references to
this in the archive:

This is K2 #61, one of the original field tester units, and it has had all
upgrade mods (at least I am pretty sure it has). I captured a .wma of it to
hear for yourself:
