And I did have this done as well, but for a different issue. -- 73 de Mike Flowers, K6MKF, NCDXC - "It's about DX!" > On Nov 9, 2022, at 4:01 PM, Keith Trinity WE6R wrote: > > It could be tin pin oxidation on the KREF3 and/or Front panel pins. > Loose and shove back on the connectors to confirm. > Replace with gold pins. > Keith WE6R Elecraft K3/K4 Tech > __ > 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 mike.flow...@gmail.com __ 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

It could be tin pin oxidation on the KREF3 and/or Front panel pins. Loose and shove back on the connectors to confirm. Replace with gold pins.

[Elecraft] K3 doesn't receive at power up
Greetings from Missouri Guys...I have a K3 which has been very reliable for years, but now it has a problem. At "power-up" from a cold start, it doesn't receive. I do get audio. It acts like no antenna is connected. If I power-down, then power-up again everything appears to be normal, at least for awhile. The power supply is okay. Once, recently, when the radio was warm, I had a no-receive problem that occured when I switched bands. My P3 would display a "large" signal that would not tune. Has anyone experienced similar problems and what generally was done to repair it? Thanks, Charlie, N0TT __ 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
