My K3's 10 meter band is dead

John Kountz
Gentlemen,
There seems to have been ambiguity in my note concerning the operational condition of my K3 (#3271).  Clarifying the issue:
For 10 meters my K3 neither transmits nor receives.  All other bands are fully functional.
Any serious suggestions?.
73,
John Kountz WO1S

Is the display dead?  If not when you tune does the frequency reading change? 
If you transmit does the red panel light come on?

We need more info than it doesn't work.

John,

Is there any chance that you tuned the VFO from another band (maybe 12
meters) into the 10 meter band?  Try a Direct Frequency Entry into the
10 meter band and see if it comes back.
