Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

Hi Gordon,

I had some power problems with my K3 a few months ago, and could not get any useful help by e-mailing support, but with the kindness of others on the Elecraft owners lists I was able to troubleshoot and repair it on my own. One of the power MOSFETs in the low power amp section had failed. I also believe the bias adjustments in that section had shifted, and it probably helped that the 100W amp had to be removed for that and then reseated into its connectors.

If you desire to go that route, I can send you my notes on the process.

73,
Chet, N8RA

I have a problem with my K3, only 60-70 watts out, even after calibration on 5 and 50 watts. This is the first time I have had a problem with the K3, after years of good operation. I emailed support over a week ago and called them on the phone last week, still have not heard anything. What is the correct email for support??
Thanks,
Gordon - N1MGO K3 #5651

Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

Chet,
Thanks! Please send me the notes, I will look at the problem
closer. I don't know if the problem is the low power amp or the 100
watt amp yet.
I should be able to fix it, I built a K2 from scratch and have repaired
other radios.

Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

In reply to this post by Chet S

Gordon,

Have you verified that your power supply and DC power cable
are delivering full voltage to your K3 when the K3 is set to deliver
110 watts output? This is a frequent cause of low power output.
Use the K3 internal voltmeter

Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

Yes, also a good idea. My Astron PS output voltage had been running a bit
low and needed to be adjusted. As an added item I bought some low ESR
electrolytics and put one across the output terminals inside that supply in
case the old original ones were suffering to do their switcher duties.
(Had that problem inside an Orion.)

I had a similar problem with our K3/Astron PS atP40L-P49Y. Removing the power cable from the back of the Astron and sanding the wires ends lightly (though no corrosion could be seen) solved the problem.

Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

In reply to this post by W3LPL

I've had the same issue with power supply leads - a little polishing raised
the output under load by almost 0.8VDC. A little dab of NO-OX ID A on the
studs and rings should keep 'em clean going forward.

Re: Elecraft contact- K3 power problem

In reply to this post by Chet S

All,
Thanks for the tips and help. It looks like my problem was just a
bad/corrodued connection in the radio. After I removed the covers and
reseated the 100 Watt amp, and other modules and cables everything
appears to be working normal.
Thanks!
