[Elecraft] K144XV + K144RFLK issue

[Simon Lewis]

Hi Wayne
 
Yes I am seeing large jumps 10 Hz or > at 144 for sure. I know that others are seeing jumps too and at 6m and 10m too.
 
Appreciate you picking this up 
 
be great as at the moment that kind of jump every 3 secs makes weak signal digi modes difficult and even listening to the local beacon darn right annoying and the transverter pretty much useless for my use just now.
 
happy to act as a tester - please shout
 
Thanks
