Read carefully to avoid the "you don't know what you're talking about" comments. Wes N7WS On 12/15/2019 11:52 AM, Nolan Kienitz wrote:
Talk about dredging up some history ... from 2009??!! I've read through this thread and a few others and have not found upon any solid answers that was posed by the OP. My K3 (S/N: 9013, Assembled: 05/10/15) started having the very faint key clicks late yesterday afternoon. As noted in the thread they seem to come from the top, right-rear of the K3. I've not yet taken the cover off and put a "tube" to my ear to narrow down source. When I first turned on my K3 today I did not hear the clicks, but after I was in the mist of a QSO they became 'hearable'. Still very faint. Rig is basic with 100w feeding a dipole. No sub-receiver. No receive antenna in use. If anyone has any thoughts about the very soft 'relay click' when operating CW I'd appreciate the input. BTW - same response with my single-lever paddle or straight key. Same response if I'm feeding my dipole or a dummy load on Ant-2. Do NOT hear the 'relay click' when it TEST mode. ----- 73 - Nolan Kienitz, KI5IO
