This is a follow up on the VFO B control problem with a friend’s older K3.
Thanks to all the ideas and suggestions! I do agree that it is likely the infamous K3 connector problem. As I mentioned, the K3 is an older unit. The ham who it belongs to is 78 with bad eyes, and shaky hands. I’m 74 with bad eyes and shaky hands. Neither of us feels qualified to tear into it for what hopefully is the main issue. It could still be a bad encoder. Since he needs a few other things done with the unit, he made the decision to send it back to Elecraft and have qualified techs perform the repair. Painful and costly but necessary. When we did the hard reset, we hoped it would solve the B control problem. Well, it didn’t. Now we can’t even scroll through the CONFIG menus to put everything back as he had it. Doesn’t matter. It needs to go home. Thanks again for the valued suggestions!! 73 … Jim Leder … K8CXM ______________________________________________________________ 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
