I just received a "new to me" K3. It is a recent serial number 18XX. The receiver works fine but there is no output power. It goes into transmit the transmit light illuminates.? but no power at all in any mode or on any band nada, nil,? zero!!!? I have checked all the obvious things. I took the covers off and could see nothing that looked wrong. Anyone have any ideas?
Also, I have a second K3 that I have been using as my primary radio for 3 months. When I moved it to test the new k3 I heard something rattling around. I removed the top cover, turned it over and out fell a wound torroid. I can's see where it is missing? It is green colored with just a few windings. Both of these K3s were factory assembled and tested!!! Needless to say I am having a very bad day!! Dave N1IX
