[Elecraft] Encoder noise on K2

I just noticed that my encoder is making noise on the 15 and 40 meter bands. 
 On 15 it is from 21.000MHz to about 21.015MHz.  On 40 it is on and off 
through the entire band.  I haven't noticed this before when turning the 
tuning knob.  Of course, it only does it when I'm turning the knob.  It 
doesn't make any noise on the other bands.

I have made some changes to my K2 in the past week.  I installed the 160m 
module, took off the KPA100 and reinstalled the original top with the KAT2. 
 The first thing that I will check is to make sure that the cable for the KAT2 
is routed properly and didn't move when I reinstalled the top.  My K2 is 
#6113.

Thanks,
Gary, N7HTS
