Well, I had a relay fail on my KAT3 board. I don't remember which one.
Elecraft sent me a replacement. It wasn't hard to replace, but it happens.

Olaf,
The relays used by Elecraft are quite reliable, so I suspect that is not
a reasonable source of the problem. In more than 12 years of repairing
the Elecraft legacy gear (more than 1200 repairs), I have had to replace
only a small handful of relays due to failure. I have replaced several
where the builder has distorted the case with a soldering iron.
I would double and triple check the SUBIN and SUBOUT connectors. A
connector failure is much more likely than a relay failure.
You might contact K3support to see if they have encountered a situation
like yours before.

I have a K3 approx 8 years old. Fully equipped with subrx, 100W PA,

When I connect the subrx, the main rx sometimes loses signal and at
the same
time power out goes to zero.
