[Elecraft] K144XV

[Fausto Coletti]

Thank you for answer,

The spurious signals are not only visible on P3 but perfectly audible in the
speaker.
I have also tried turning P3 off and unplug it but the signals are always
present and audible.

That sounds like a P3 cable problem.  There have been reports of
faulty BNC cables supplied in a batch that was bad from the supplier.

Try contacting Elecraft and describe the problem to them.

Also while you are waiting to call Elecraft over the week-end, make
sure that ALL of the cable routing is as it was before the
installation.  That covers any existing cables you may have moved
around.

Good luck,
