Re: [Elecraft] K3 Randomly Changes Modes
Hi Gary, I bet you've never used that retort before now. I don't need any servants, but I could use a 'memory' (not Memory) with same day service. 73, Mike __ 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

Re: [Elecraft] K3 Randomly Changes Modes
Hi Randy, If memory serves me correctly, others have reported similar gremlins with seemingly random activation of front panel controls that were not intended. The remedy was (1) check whether your radio has the gold pin connectors on the front panel-to-RF board interface, and (2) carefully clean the pins on the male header - not by spraying, but by using contact cleaner on a cotton swab. Re-insert the front panel to the RF board. 73, Mike, K8CN __ 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
[Elecraft] K3 Randomly Changes Modes
Hi All My K3 has developed an issue. It randomly switches to USB from CW, especially when I am turning the main tuning knob but sometimes when I am parked on a freq. Any ideas as to what the solution is? 73 Randy __ 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
