K3 KSYN3 Problems

Michael Eberle

When the sub receiver is activated on any band 20 - 10 Meters, I started
getting ERR PL2 messages.  I opened the radio up and checked all the
cables and did not see anything obviously wrong.  When I tried the
synthesizer calibration, I get error messages ERR PL2 E00130 and ERR VC4
00039.  I pulled the KSYN3 boards and swapped them and the problem
followed it to the main receiver and the sub is fine.  Is there anything
that can be done short of ordering a new KSYN3 module?

Thanks,
Mike - KI0HA

Mike,

It sounds like you have done everything recommended in the
Troubleshooting part of the manual to isolate the problem.
Next step is to email customer support [hidden email] to see if
they can offer any additional information.  They can give you
information on the meaning of the extended error codes.
