Flex 6500: Frequency is drifting downwards....

My Flex 6500 has the following problem:

When switched on and operated via SmartSDR, the frequency constantly drifts downwards.

Does anyone know about this issue with the Flex 6500:

The frequency adjusts itself because the device registers phantom activations at the up/down button connections on the microphone plug. I solved this by soldering two wire bridges from the up/down pins to ground. This keeps the levels at the up/down pins permanently at a defined level, and the frequency remains stable.
