[Elecraft] K3 No power out after idle time
This symptom makes me think of edge connector problems I have heard about. But in my case there are no low voltage errors that seems to be the case in other reports. If I cycle the radio off and back on everything is good. I think this is the third time this has happened, all in the last month. The only commonality is that the radio has been on and idle for an hour or two. When I return to operate, the problem occurs. I don't think it happens in every case. Any other K3 owners seen this? Thanks! God Bless & 73!

Re: [Elecraft] K3 No power out after idle time
Hi Jack, I have had this exact problem. Turned out to be the connector between the front panel and main pcb. Treatment with Deoxit has cured it. BTW - I also had some other weird, seemingly unrelated, problems that would occur randomly. The Deoxit treatment cured all of those as well.
