[Elecraft] Problems with K3 s/n 1826

[Rob May]

Check that a long lead from the KSYN3 or KREF3 modules aren't shorted against the bare metal they mount to.  That was my problem.  One cap had a lead that was too long and was touching.

I just finished building my new K3 (all except the 100W amp that
awaits final checkout). The rig seems to power up OK, but returns error messages
when I do the Synthesizer Calibration. It returns Err VCO with E 00374 data
and/or ERR VC4 with E 00039 data. I checked the seating of the oscillator, the
KREF3 and KSYN3 modules and the three TMP cables, but the results are the same.
What is going on and what can I do? Thank you.
