[Elecraft] 6m transmit issue

[Mike Kasrich]

Im going to read more on this thread but after glancing at it I went to 
6m to see what if anything was happening here.  My 6m xmit does 
unexplicably drop out. 100w to zero no warning no nothing.  It does 
recover on it's own or through a band switch.

I know this is a great receiver but Im having some concerns about K-3 
reliability.  Being a contester I need rock solid on this point.  Im 
still having an intermittent txco problem also.  The txco xtal doesnt 
seem to sit too well in the ic socket on the ref.  Im thinking out loud 
here but I wonder why the xtal just wasnt soldered on the board in the 
first place.
