[Elecraft] K1 slightly frequency shift

[Harry via Elecraft]

Hello Glen,

got the info about the X-Lock also from G4AON.

But I am not asking about a drift in general, I noticed this small shift only if I put my hands on the top cover.

Hi Harry, 
  
 
 
I have purchased an X-Lock frequency stabiliser kit from Cumbria Designs,   cumbriadesigns.co.uk. I have not built and installed it yet so can't comment on it but positive reviews and good article on installing it in the K1. 
 
Cheers,

  Hello   
    
 since a week I am also very happy owner of a K1 with the 4 band module, atu and nb board.   
    
 The rx is amazing, but I notice a slight shift of the vfo if I am put my hand on the top cover of the K1.   
 I notice this shift, about 100 hz, also after a longer warm up periode. Even when I put one or two fingers above the vfo dial.   
 Any hints to reduce this little frequency shift?
