Well, this morning I got a chance to put the K3S on the bench. Thanks to some info from Lyle KK7P and Bob N6TV as to how things were wired up I was prepared to trace this and that... O'scope was ready...
Turned out to be a loose wire where the internal speaker lead connects to the speaker lugs. I was all wrapped around the axle on CONFIG settings and worried that a multi-pin connector might not have been seated properly... turned out to be a simple problem. The solder lug on the speaker itself looks to be well soldered, but there is what looks like a crimp in that conductor just a bit upstream. My bet is there is a break in the wire inside the insulator there. For now, some electrical tape is holding the wire tight against the speaker so it can't move around. I'll email support and request a replacement. Thanks for the info, fellows! 73 de Chuck, WS1L -- =================== Chuck Chandler [email protected] =================== ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
