[Elecraft] RE: K3: More on AF Gain delay

[Joel R. Hallas]

Well, while waiting for a s/w install in the radio computer, I thought I'd
give this another try.

 

The nut did not appear loose at all - nor did I observe any slop, but I
tightened it with a nut driver anyway and the problem seems to have gone!

 

Thanks again to Don, and hope others find it helpful.

 

 

Regards, Joel

Thanks for the suggestion Don, but that wasn't it either. Any other
thoughts?
