We are doing the CQWWRTTY and my K3 might have over-heated producing
multiple problems.
1. The MON level suddenly increased until the level was unbearable.
Turning MON down to 1 made it bearable. The hung up in TX. Finally
turned the K3 off which cleared these problems.
2. We lost all signals (thought it was a SID at first). There was
an err "C .555". Now know this was the formula for F to C. Temp
was C-41 at the time.
3. We now have an "ERR VCO E 00189" after trying to calibrate the
VCO.
4. The RF output is down to 12W, which seems to indicate the 100w
amp is not working. Have checked the ckt-breaker on the back, which
appears good.
Thanks.
73, Chuck N7BV
