[Elecraft] KX1 TX Cold Problem

[Edward R. Breneiser]

Hello,

Has anyone had transmitter problems with your KX1 in below freezing
weather?  I took my KX1 out on a Polar Bear Moonlight Madness Event this
past weekend and had 0w output after hitting the tune buttons?
The swr on the tuner indicated 9.9:1 on an antenna that has tuned well.
I borrowed my friends K1 and it worked fine on the same antenna.
The outside temperature was around 20'F. I put my KX1 on the bench at
home and it seems to work fine with no intermittents?
