Gary, Power supplies are usually fused on the output. The fuse may have blown due to the high SWR. Fuses sometimes oxidize internally, and will blow at lower than rated value. Perhaps it's period of non-use was a factor. I wish you the best test results. (Don't forget to check out that antenna first.)

I'm at another QTH without any equipment so can't measure the voltage on the rig end of the power cable. Gary from Elecraft told me that if that tests OK and rig still doesn't fire up, that I will have to send it in. Taking rig home Monday and putting on a different supply and then probably requesting a RSA. tnx, Gary W7TEA ----- 73, Gary W7TEA K3 #1001, #5763 -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-suddenly-dies-tp7579305p7579313.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ 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
