[Elecraft] K3 P3 OK I have another question.

[Fred Jensen]

P3 is in Fixed Mode, that's not the right term but the center frequency 
stays put and I tune across it until I get to the edge and then it 
switches.  I normally have a few fixed frequency spurs, they mainly come 
from the wireless company's RAP at the top of my tower, there are two 
backhauls and one distribution radio.  I don't mind it, I don't 
interfere, and we get free internet.

Lately, sort of after I calibrated my K3 S-meter with my svc mon and set 
the P3, I'm seeing very large "spurs" I can't tune to ... they move as I 
tune.  I'm pretty sure I don't have the IF mod for the P3.

Anyone know where they're coming from?  When I "calibrated" the P3 to 
the S-meter, I had to run the setting way down to the -20 range. 
Signals all look good, just these big couple of "spurs."
