[Elecraft] K3 - Noise on main RX while tuning second RX - update

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

Following K3KO's suggestion, I checked the mods on the website, and sure 
enough, there was one in September 2009 that addressed noise heard on 
some K3s when tuning.  From the description, it did not seem to address 
noise on the main RX when tuning the sub-RX.  Mine does not make noise 
on the main RX when tuning the main RX, so may not be the same cause.  
If anyone reads this who was involved in developing that mod, I'd 
appreciate any comment on the desirability of making the mod in my case.
