Looks like I have a problem with a bad solder connection.  Gary from Elecraft 
had me do some checks and as soon as my arm rested against the front panel the 
receiver came to life.   I took the front panel apart  and could not find any 
bad or missing solder connections on the control, rf, or front panel boards 
under inspection with a large lighted mag glass.
Just for GP I touched the solder iron to all the pins for the connectors.   
When I put  it back together I still had the same problem , dead receiver,  
after pushed down on the control , it came to life again.

We are going away for the weekend,  when I get back I will take it apart again 
and check,, maybe even have fresh eyes look at it.

Gary  recommended that I get the" Cheap and Dirty Signal Tracing for the K2 "  
off of their site...   That is a very good tool for everyone to have.   

I will post earlier next week on my results,, hopefully I will be able to find 
the bad solder connection.

Tnx for all the help
