[Elecraft] K3: remove birdies on a transverter band?

[KD7YZ Bob]

Howdy K3' people:

Don was telling me about removing birdies when I mentioned they seemed
all over my three transverters.

The manual says go to the IF, in this case 28mHz.

Well gee ... I don't hear them on 28 megs so I wouldn't be removing
anything if I tuned there and said 'remove birdies".

Any of you guys  see plethora birdies down around 432.0 ->432.15 and/of
144.0 ->144.2 ??

I was going to try that, if it works, before locating the sources of
this monsters. Most seem to not go away if I remove the antenna. Some
seem to get loud if I move cables. I could run the rig on a large 12v
battery and switch the mains off .... if I wanted to reset all the
microwave and clocks .. and if I remembered to disable the 10k generator
that kicks in 30 seconds after a power failure.

Not much in the way of businesses to generate stuff out here; nearest
house about  3/4 mile but not line-of sight through the hills.
