Hi,
Yesterday I spent several hours assembling my new K3 to the point of resistance measurements on page 45 of the assembly manual. U12 is reading 16-18 ohms instead of the specified >500ohms. I've since exchanged emails with support with the usual tips on trying a different meter, reversing leads, checking connectors etc. None have changed the readings. I removed the front panel and separated the DSP board from the front panel board. With the entire front panel removed the resistance is ~5 k ohms. When plugging in only J51 (yes, very carefully) on the DSP board the resistance is again ~16 ohms. Plugging in the other connectors on the two boards results in ~ 5 k ohms. I've done a very through inspection of the RF and DSP boards and have found nothing at fault.
I would appreciate any thoughts and ideas on how to reslove the problem.
Thank you, have a good day and 73.
Jim, W0EM
