Hi Dave, I've gone through this issue with Wayne and Aptos as well. My hash is registers approximately S3-S5 around 5Mhz. According to Wayne, the synthesizers may be "hot". I do not notice this problem anywhere else and since I usually don't operate around 5Mhz, it's gone unnoticed for some time.

If I'm looking for signals, I'm turning the knob more slowly am not aware of hash. Even if it is there, reproduced as individual pops, it has gone unnoticed. So: 1. Hash is definitely present on my K3 and is most definitely NOT something received off-air. 2. So far, it hasn't bothered me. 3. Owing to 2, I don't recall where else I've heard it, other than at the 5MHz boundary when tuning quickly. 73 all.
