K3S Shutdown

Bob DeHaney
Station is in Standby, just listening when suddenly the K3S just turns off.  It turns on afterwards normally. Linear Power Supply is working (30Amp) and is still on.  NO RF being generated.

Any ideas?

Re: K3S Shutdown

Lou Mecseri
how old is your power supply capacitor?

Check your voltage with a VOM at the PS terminal and at the internal K3
Volt meter.
