Hi, Can you give me a list (frequencies) of your worst birdies and I will check if I have them. In general I have not found many bothersome birdies in the K3S, but there are some. If I don't have them, there is clearly something wrong with your radio which may warrant a return to Elecraft. BTW, I don't have much faith in firmware birdie removal. It certainly doesn't remove birdies in the panadapter display (LP-Pan and NaP3 in my case).
