Hello Harald, It is probably best to repost this report to the list as there are many there far more knowledgeable about the K3 and what to expect, than me on it. With that, I am sending your reply directly to the list along with my reply to you.
When I press Rev, I get no flashing XREV IN, it simply says XREV IN and then disappears after maybe one second. At that time it returns to REF CAL and within moments the asterisk is flashing. As I recall, initially it took a bit longer for the asterisk to appear, but it did and then it took some time for the REF CAL numerical readout to stabilize. Once stabilized I pushed A/B to save that value in memory. Write down your REF CAL number and then when you feel you have done all the right things, slowly turn VFO A and if you are locked in with the 10 MHz source, the letters REF CAL will be replaced with LOCKED. If this does not happen, return to the number you wrote down to return to where you were. Is it possible you do not have a working 10 MHz source? Is it possible either the connector or coax is not completing the connection? Is it possible the pins are not lined up properly in the K3XREF? At this point, I have no other ideas to help you, hopefully someone else can offer more. 73 & good luck, Gary KA1J > Hello Gary, > your assumption is correct.
