[Elecraft] Whoops!

[stephen Farthing]

Hi NN5G,

	Almost the same thing happened to me on my standard K2. However I
did not trash the LCD. The cause was not transmitting into a dummy load; I
had it connected into the wrong antenna connector. The net result was I
trashed the pa transistors. You might wish to check them in your debugging.

Regards,

Steve

    I was in the process of adjusting L3 & L4 after  installing the K160RX
for max power, when I got a HI CUR indication, then lost  all power. The LCD
does not light. Yes, I was using the plastic tool to adjust L3  & L4. I do
have power on the board. I unplugged the 160 board, but nothing  changed. I
never had to troubleshoot putting it together a year ago. Any  suggestions
on where to start looking?  Tnx de NN5G
