I managed to connect a 12 volt car battery backwards to the K3. There was a lot of smoke and the breaker popped. The RX and TX appear to have survived, however the internal 100 Watt amplifier now shows an over-current fault and quickly switches off. I haven't dared open it up yet - far too depressed now. I'll leave it till next weekend.
Any comments on what I might expect to find inside and how to idiot-proof it for my future operation? 73 Roger KK3RW / G3WEW ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
