Hi,

Yesterday I spent several hours assembling my new K3 to the point of resistance 
measurements on page 45 of the assembly manual.  U12 is reading 16-18 ohms 
instead of the specified >500ohms.  I've since exchanged emails with support 
with the usual tips on trying a different meter, reversing leads, checking 
connectors etc.  None have changed the readings.  I removed the front panel and 
separated the DSP board from the front panel board.  With the entire front 
panel removed the resistance is ~5 k ohms.  When plugging in only J51 (yes, 
very carefully) on the DSP board the resistance is again ~16 ohms.  Plugging in 
the other connectors on the two boards results in ~ 5 k ohms.  I've done a very 
through inspection of the RF and DSP boards and have found nothing at fault.  

I would appreciate any thoughts and ideas on how to reslove the problem.  

Thank you, have a good day and 73.

Jim, W0EM
