I have had the K3 for about 5 years now. S/N 2679. And to clarify, I
guess it did key the transmitter because the TX light would come on but
it did not put out any power and showed 0 Watts on the display. I have
not had any other problems except for the headphone jack on the rear. I
probably plugged a mono plug into it by mistake.

Sounds like a job for ghost busters. OK, maybe a bad contact pin. How old is
your K3?
73

Subject: [Elecraft] Ghost in my K3?
Ok, I just had something really strange happen with my K3. I was
listening to a strong signal and all of a sudden all the audio dropped
out, and the S meter dropped down to nothing, yet the P3 still showed
the signal. Apparently a disconnect in the IF after the P3 output.
Cycling power a couple times didn't help. Then I pressed TUNE and it
would not key the transmitter and the VFO-B area showed 0 watts. After
trying the TUNE button a couple times, all of a sudden it went back to
normal operation. Has anyone else ever had this happen? What could
have caused this, maybe a loose cable?
Thanks,
Mike
