Thanks for the heads up on the BNC cables. I am not sure where I got the one I am using. I will swap out the cable and see if the issue is still there.

with high quality cable and connectors.

In my experience, the I.F. cable between the K3 and P3 is quite
finicky when it comes to the quality of cable and connectors.  I
have just replaced my two P3 cables with these:

These cables have a copper braid and aluminum foil shield, the
molded transition from connector to cable looks beefy and solid,
and the connectors fit well.  Prices and shipping are very
reasonable.

Thanks to Hank, W6SX, for pointing out cablewholesale.com as a
good supplier.
