Hi,

Trigged by K3 update "K3 VFO tuning noise reduction" is noticed some dips in the noise while tuning the VFO. 
Is this what this update is about? Are there more K3 users who noticed this?
It happens only when the display's hundred-digit changes from a "4" to a "5"  and v.v.
Here is a list on which frequenties I notice the dip in the noise. It's sounds like the Noise Blanker is activated shortly.
But I don't think this is the problem. K3 on LSB or USB with NO antenna attached to it. NB on/off or AGC-F/S makes no difference.
