[TA2AH]

G'day,



This is Ruchan (TA2AH) from Istanbul-Turkey.



A strange behavior started on my K3 (Serial #1230). 

 

I build a K3-10W with antenna tuner nearly 1.5 years ago, and I used it until today without any problem.

 

Recently, I have ordered a KPA3 for K3/10 after a while a KXV3A option.

 

When I installed KPA3 option my K3 worked without any problem.

 

After a while, I also installed KXV3A option and a strange problem started.

 

K3 is working but the display characters become unreadable (strange characters with no meening) time to time by itself or when I press one of the front panel buttons.

 

Please check the attache picture. 

 

It becomes normal by itself, or when I touch some of the front panel buttons again.

 

Any idea!!



Any help would be appreciated.

 

73,

Ruchan Ozatay (TA2AH)
