Yeah... Does it power on again? If not, ... I had the same thing happen about two months ago... the power on FET blew. Not sure why that happens... The aux 12V reversing diode was shorted too... but I never use the aux 12V connection.

This morning while playing in the RTTY 'test, I answered a CQ by sending my call nine times (3 bursts of 3). 100W power. The antenna is at 1.0:1 SWR. *CLICK* and the K3 powered off. I wasn't watching it, so didn't see any error message. Vague I know, but it's all I have. Any thoughts? 73 Mike NF4L ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ----- No virus found in this message.
