[Elecraft] KRX3 in action

good morning, 

the KRX3 arrived and I installed it yesterday. After doing the VCO calibration 
and filter settings it is working fine. 
I have observed two things that are not clear to me so I wanted to ask if this 
is the same at your K3's. 

When I switch SUB on and I have the antenna shared between the main RX 
and the sub RX and both are exactly on the same frequency I can hear a 
strange "stereo" sound in the headphones. It sounds like the signal is 
moving in my head from left to right. It reminds me to a zero beat at about 1 
hz. Is this normal?

Second: I have a relative strong birdy (S3-4) at 7120 khz which is 
microfoning when I tap on the K3. It is only present in USB!
There is another one with lower intensity (S1) at 14.185 - no microfoning 
when I tap. The birdy on 6m that I had befor I added the KRX3 has 
disappeared completely here.
