K3 S/N 7394 RF Out = 0 Problem: SOLVED

[Brian F. Wruble-2]

Gary and all who offered help:

I have no idea what the problem was.  However, I unbuilt all the way back
to a K3/10, then built it back up.  I added the KPA3, and it passed all the
RF tests.  I added the KRX3, and the subreceiver seems to work, and I still
have RF out.  That was where it failed the last time.

Now I just have to replace a busted J92 Female on the KRX3 (not needed
except for when using a separate receive antenna), and I'll be good to go.
 I have already requested a few of those from Elecraft.  They are pretty
delicate, and I wouldn't be surprised if some of the others develop
intermittent problems at some point.

Thanks again for the help, and especially for the excellent support by
Elecraft.

By the way, I am 70, have terrible reading vision and arthritic thumbs.
 I'd still rather build them then get them built.  It is nice to know what
goes on inside them.
