I reported to the list on Sunday, a ‘deaf’ K3.
The impact of this was receive levels at about 50dB down from stations measured
on my spare receiver - slightly better with the pre-amp on. Elecraft support asked
me to remove the KXV3 and jumper J66 pins 8-10, 13-15. Receiver sensitivity
back to normal – phew! Board replacement necessary.
This will somewhat limit my antenna configuration for CQWW
this coming weekend – I like to use a horizontal wire on 40m receive –
although I guess I could use the Antenna B position?
Although the supply of the replacement board is not yet finalised,
I must commend Gary Surrency from support for his patience and diligence in
helping me fault find and resolving the issue. Nice people to deal with.
Cheers,
