[Elecraft] K2 Drifts in Transmit

Hello,

 Wondering if anyone has the same issue with their K2.

K2 is a QRP radio SN 01392.

 This happened to me two times today. Occasionally when I come down into the
shack and turn on the K2 I will tune around for a few minutes looking for
anyone calling CQ. When I hear a station I will send my call sign. When I go
to give the usual RST, name and QTH the VFO will drift up. The weird thing
is that I can clear the problem by turning off the radio, wait 10 seconds,
and then turn it back on. The VFO is stable and will not drift while I
transmit.

Today when I saw the rig drifting again I placed the rig on the dummy load.
It will continue to drift until I turn it off and wait 10 seconds then turn
it back on. Like I said it does not happen all the time.
