[Elecraft] KX3 "spurious" signals on my K3/P3 ??

[Phil Hystad]

So, just now (this morning) using the KX3 and learning all about it.  I have my KX3 sitting on my desk and the antenna hooked up to my 80-meter dipole.  My K3 is on and hooked up to my Hex-beam.

So, while tuning the KX3 I can see a peaked signal moving across the P3 display hooked to my K3.  It seems that the KX3 is generating a signal right on the VFO frequency that is pretty strong.  But, it is in the K3 too since it strongly interferes with the signals on the K3.

Is this normal behavior?  It does not seem like normal behavior?  So far, I have only checked the 20-meter band.
