[Elecraft] K3 Bottom Front Panel Issues

[Don Wilhelm]

Brett,

I believe the answer to most of your fears is to purchase a new 
screwdriver and yes, make up that BOM list and place an order.  Replace 
what needs replacing and be done with it.

While you are replacing, check the grounding points on the panels and 
you may have some improvement in grounding afterwards.  If you are 
camming out screws with your current screwdriver, then it is likely they 
are not adequately tightened either.
