[Elecraft] Help with new K3

[Bruce McLaughlin]

At long last my new K3 arrived today.  Ordered 10/29/07, Katiegram on 4/9
and it arrived May 6, 2008. It is an assembled radio.

I have just begun to set it up for operation.  But I have run into an early
problem.  I'm sure it's probably my fault.  I purchased a pro-set with the
radio.  Unfortunately, I get no output to the headphones when I plug it into
the rear phone jack or with the front jack using an adapter.  Furthermore,
when the mike was plugged in it appeared that something was shorted because
the transmit light came on and would not turn off.  When I unplugged the
mike the transmit light was not on.  I'm not sure that I  turned the bias on
before I plugged in the mike.  I have since turned the bias on but have not
yet rechecked it.

When the phones are inserted in the rear phone jack the speaker goes off but
there is no sound in the headphones.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to
what stupid mistake I'm probably making?
