My KX3 had exactly the same issue when it arrived here. Shop-built. It
was returned for service and it turned out to be a bent pin on the
charger/clock option board.
Disappointing but quickly resolved.

Hello folks,
Just got my new KX3 and couldn't be more excited but I'm having a problem I
hope
the group can help me solve. My KX3 is factory built with the KXBC3. I
installed
new Powerex 2700mAh NiMH batteries and went to charge them. I had the KX3
connected to an Astron SS-30 and got a "LO SPPLY" message. I thought maybe
due
to the set screw type connector the Astron has, it wasn't getting a good
connection. I was wanting a new power supply anyway so I went to Radio Shack
and
bought a new 13.8VDC 3amp. I just hooked up the KX3 and still get the same
message. The NiHM batteries are now low enough that the rig won't stay on.
Am I missing something?
I posted this to the Yahoo group as well.
Thank you
Bob
