Re: [Elecraft] K3- Part fell out!
Actually with a marking like 3K3, it's likely a 3.3K ohms surface mount resistor. Possibly from a poor soldering job on the main board. It likely passed electrical tests, but after some mechanical torque, it likely popped off of the board. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE On Mon, Jan 23, 2023 at 4:43 PM Rich WC3T wrote: > My totally uneducated guess is that it’s a surface mount capacitor.

Re: [Elecraft] K3- Part fell out!
My totally uneducated guess is that it’s a surface mount capacitor. I did an image search and found what resembles you have. That’s all I can offer.

Re: [Elecraft] K3- Part fell out!
Does the radio still work? If I find loose parts but the radio still works, I consider them to be spare parts. Seriously, does it appear to be electronic in nature ... i.e. does it have terminals or solder points? 73, Fred ["Skip"] K6DGW Sparks NV DM09dn Washoe County Dennis W1UE wrote on 1/23/2023 1:21 PM: I dropped d a lock washer into the bowels of my K3 today, so had to invert the unit to get the washer out of the unit.
