I can understand his being asked to turn off the backlight as a test or 
as a temporary workaround, but not as a permanent cure.  Perhaps there 
was a 'glitch' in the communications channels.

BTW - the last email from the originator indicated that it has been 
traced to a bad filter capacitor, so all those who were beginning to 
think this was 'normal behavior' can rest easy - it was only a problem 
with one KPA500.  As attributed to by several other posts saying that 
others did not find any 6 meter responses originating from their KPA500, 
I would say it is not a widespread problem.

73,
