John,
Don't forget to check the connections on the outside of the K3 as well.
A loose PL-259 connector could cause that same behavior.
PL-259s need to be tightened finger tight, and then given just a little
bit more tightening with pliers to assure a good connection to the coax
braid.

My K3 is acting up a bit. No Receive No Transmit. I operate this radio
remotely so all I can tell you is that it appears to be all working as per the
HRD screen I am looking at. The radio appears to switch to transmit and I
hear the monitor CW being sent but no output on the wattmeter. The only
noise coming from the radio is inter radio noise it the volume is turned to
max. A slight TAP on the top of the case and the radio goes back into
perfect normal operation. I am guessing that some plug someplace inside
the radio isn't making proper contact.
Does anyone have any idea which plug and its location?
