Ok, checked the RX ANT switch. It was not on. I did connect an antenna to the RX ANT jack and switched to it, but no difference.
Not sure what is wrong where. In any case, there is very little sensitivity in the K3 at this point. Don't know what to check. I have gone back through the best I can... seems everything was done correctly. Very careful about ESD.

Joe, Do you have a KXV3 module installed? You may be switched to the RX antenna.
