Phil,
Your best option at this point is to send an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I would only spread the toroid turns as a last resort and only after
discussing it with K3support.

I got several replies to my query. I have tried reloading the latest
released firmware, checking the REF and SYN PCBs for shorting
and reseating the oscillator in its socket. All with no improvement.
The PLL1 voltage goes above 7 volts in the upper end of 40 meters, and
the relays switch several times as I tune across 40 meters. The only
suggestion I haven't tried is spreading the turns on the toroid. Is
that my only option at this point? Thank you.

I just finished building my new K3 (all except the 100W amp that
awaits final checkout). The rig seems to power up OK, but returns
error messages when I do the Synthesizer Calibration. It returns
Err VCO with E 00374 data and/or ERR VC4 with E 00039 data. I
checked the seating of the oscillator, the KREF3 and KSYN3 modules
and the three TMP cables, but the results are the same. What is
going on and what can I do? Thank you.
