Good Morning All, Have gained an odd issue this morning. Rig is serial number 464 and has been flawless since the day I got it. Last night was on 40M CW DXing, all was well. This morning got into the shack (rig is always left on) and I went to change the band from 40m to 20m. I pressed the BAND button and nothing happens. I try the MODE button and again nothing happens. I can tune the main VFO just fine but then I hit the ANT button and that activated Noise Reduction (NR), I press CWT and that toggles CMP/PWR, I press RX ANT and that turns on the Noise Blanker, ATU TUNE toggles the AGC settings, you get the idea. It seems the button mappings are all corrupted.
OK things that I have tried: 1. Power cycled the Rig - no change. 2. I was running FW 3.30 and I downgraded to 2.67 (tried this process twice) - no change 3. I then figured it was a hardware issue (loose board) so I tried software controlling the rig with K3EZ and still no good, I can't change bands via software! 4. I pulled the power plug from the K3 and let it sit then powered back on. - no change 5. I then tested my voltage on my power supply (Astron 50Amp) 13.8 6. I have done a reset holding the SHIFT/LO while powering up but in my case its the SPOT button that does that function. After a reset still no good. I think I have exhausted all that I can try at this point. Anyone have any suggestions before I call Elecraft? Thanks and 73, Lee -WW2DX ______________________________________________________________ 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
