Hello Elecraft K3'ers,
I only joined this Reflector yesterday, and already can see
there's a huge amount of K3-related knowledge on here!
My K3 (2498) does a superb job but now has a problem
concerning the loudspeaker audio that's getting ever more
irritating.
For the first few minutes after the K3 is turned on there is
audio from the loud-speaker OK, but it's scratchy and
distorted compared to what's being heard in the headphones
(where the audio is perfect). After a few more minutes the
audio in the loudspeaker gets ever more scratchy with the
sound of "frying eggs" coming and going. After another ten
minutes or so the audio from the loudspeaker stops
completely (but continues fine in the headphones).
Operationally this is not a problem because I always wear
headphones for CW operating, but not being able to use the
loudspeaker is annoying. Even after the loudspeaker has gone
completely dead, it still appears to function for about
half-a-second or so after the headphones are either plugged
in or out of the front panel socket.
Is there something perhaps wrong with my settings on the K3
that might be causing this? Or is there possibly something
more sinister going on within my K3?
