Here is one data point:
My K3 had both a failed front panel board and SUBRX board.
**HOWEVER**, both were my fault.
I plugged a mono plug into the speaker jack and thus shorted and blew an
audio amp on the FP board.
I got impatient with the tiny TMP
antenna connector on the SUB and tore it off the PCB while trying to plug
in the antenna cable - brute force was a bad idea.
Elecraft replaced both boards, no charge, retail price roughly $1000 (CAD).
No other failures whatsoever in 3 years and several hundred hours
operating, plus two trips as airline carryon baggage.
