Keith,
If you don't mind, could we discuss this? I have had a similar
problem but it's sporadic.
Please let me know how to reach you directly if you're intrerested to
discuss this person to person.

Not sure why the KX3 doesn't like my mobile environment but after having a FT450AT, my K3 and a Icom 706 having minimal issues the KX3 seems to have more problems in my truck than the other radios.
