I'm sure I installed it....I go into config and change it from not

I'll pop the lid and have a look. I don't think it would show nor if 
it was mis-installed.

I haven't tried it before due to other issues. I have #501 and the 
ATU doesn't function and there is an intermittent on the mixer board 
that injects broadband noise, I think that little pot on the board is 
intermittent. I contacted Elecraft last Monday and they said the new 
boards were on the way. I found out today they haven't been shipped 
yet due to a oversight. I can understand that. So, i thought I would 
go ahead and see if I could get the other features adjusted, the rig 
does work. Another gotcha it looks like.
I used an anti static wrist band and mat during construction. Having 
build a couple K2's and a K1 with no problems I figured a modular K3 
would be a snap.
I got the lemon.

I thought I should too.
