Mike, records show you got the gold front panel pins in 2015 service. I recommend replacing the KREF3 board tin pins with gold also. Also, wiggle each cable around there with needle-nose pliers to see if one is intermittent. Keith WE6R Elecraft K3/K4 Tech

I was activating a park this weekend and the radio stopped receiving signals.  I had to turn the volume up all the way to hear "static"  but no signals.  When keying the radio there was zero output. I was able to fix the issue by removing the receiver module and reseating all the TMP cables.
