Thanks to Rick, N1RM, and his expertise in tracing circuits, my K3 is back in FB working order. We found that a switching diode on the bottom (fortunately) of the RF board had failed. (I think it was D25.). It was a low cost fix, and with Rick's surface mount skills a replacement was soon installed.
Rick's main expertise in working with ham equipment is repairing ACOM amps, but fortunately he had the ability and equipment to help solve my K3's problem. Thanks for all the ideas and feedback here on this reflector. 73 - John, W4AU ______________________________________________________________ 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
