[Elecraft] KX-1 Glitch

Operating the CWT yesterday for the first time with the KX-1, I found a 
glitch:  When tuning around the band, the frequency sometimes just stops 
changing.  Usually (always?) when I'm tuning downward, it's as if it 
hits a wall:  I can tune back upwards, but when I tune downward it just 
stops at the same frequency.  It's not just the display, as I can hear 
that the frequency is not changing.  If I change bands and come back to 
the same frequency, it works normally for a while.   It happens several 
times in an hour of operating, so it's not easy to reproduce.  It's 
almost certainly not a bad encoder.

If it's a firmware bug, as I suspect, others should observe the same 
problem.  Firmware is 1.02.

Has anyone else seen this?
