Don: After poking around, I am leading toward D5 of the Front Panel board installed backwards. From the schematic, this would prevent bank 1 of the switches and the power knob from functioning properly and would, I think, also affect the keyer operation. I have looked for a photo of this board on the Elecraft site but the one they have is the 1999 board. If that circuit hasn't changed then D5 is indeed backwards. I can't see the silkscreen patterm on my board anymore as the diode covers it too well and it is too stiff to move. From the schematic, however, I am sure it's backwards. Thanks again for your help!
