I reported to the list on Sunday, a 'deaf' K3. The impact of this was receive levels at about 50dB down from stations measured on my spare receiver - slightly better with the pre-amp on. Elecraft support asked me to remove the KXV3 and jumper J66 pins 8-10, 13-15. Receiver sensitivity back to normal - phew! Board replacement necessary.
This will somewhat limit my antenna configuration for CQWW this coming weekend - I like to use a horizontal wire on 40m receive - although I guess I could use the Antenna B position? Although the supply of the replacement board is not yet finalised, I must commend Gary Surrency from support for his patience and diligence in helping me fault find and resolving the issue. Nice people to deal with. Cheers, Terry Burbidge G4MKP
