Guys
I have a K3 that has developed what I think is a fault on the sub-receiver. It 
is S/N 883. MCU Firmware is at 4.86

If I switch on the K3 and enable the sub receiver, I hear equally as well as 
the main receiver but after a few seconds, an increasingly loud noise level 
builds up and the signal level drops down (in this situation, the noise remains 
present even when the aerial is disconnected). The main receiver operates 
without any such issues.

I  have saved a small video file showing the effect and how switching the sub 
receiver off and then immediately back on restores the receiver, until the 
noise returns and the signal drops out once again.  See

I have checked internal TMP connections and also the multi-pin connectors on 
the sub receiver board, but having put things back together the situation 
remains unchanged.

Has anyone had a similar fault and if so, what was the solution?
