Lyn,

On your KAT500, do contact support about it, and if they want you to send it in, do so. Many techs are working from home, and while the time from receipt at Elecraft until it is shipped may be longer, the process still is working. Who knows when this coronavirus thing will subside and things will get fully back to normal and full in-office staffing, but Elecraft is 'limping along' to support customers.

Tom -

I had the same experience a few months back.  I talked with Elecraft Support, 
and they had me check a few things.  There was no obvious cause, except the 
power supply board was dead.

They asked me to send it in, which I did, and they replaced the board.  
Fortunately I got it back a couple days before the COVID shutdown hit, and it 
has been fine since.

As a precautionary move, they changed the power transformer back to the default setting.  
I had set it up one notch because our line voltage is low, and that was needed to get it 
"near" the optimal value.

I also have tuner (KAT500) issues, but will live with it, as I am reluctant to 
send anything anywhere at this time.
