[Elecraft] Elecraft K3 & P3 Strange Occurrence

[Mike VE3YF]

Hi:

I have something strange that just started to popup. The K3 is on a 80m 
Freq of 3.755.00 and I also have the P3 turned on and it is reading the 
same freq. Every so often (random) the Freq on the P3 will go to 0 and 
then back to 3.755.00. The rest of the display is just fine with only a 
slight flicker as the displayed freq changes. This strange occurrence is 
not being displayed or observed on the K3.

On the RS-232 Port on the back of the K3, one branch of a Y-Cable 
connects the K3 to the P3 via a short RS-232 Cable on the bottom P3 
RS-232 Connector, and the other branch of the Y-Cable is connected to a 
MicroHam MK2. The other RS-232 Port on the P3 is hooked up to the 
computer comport.

On the ACC Port on the back of the K3 is another Y-Cable that connects 
the K3 to the Microham MK2 and the other branch of the Y-Cable goes to 
the KAT500.

Both the K3 and P3 have the latest firmware.

Both cables have been in place for over a couple years, and all of a 
sudden this strange occurrence has shown up. Any one have any idea's. Tnx.
