[Elecraft] low power output after air travel - resolved

[Dale Long]

Thanks for each suggestion, I followed them all, and my K3 now has full
output.

 

Tried cleaning and re-seating contacts, and following 12V sources. Also
straightened some bent pins, and recrimped some connections. Not sure what
was the problem, but may have been the circuit breaker.  the switch in the
CB seems a little loose and I don't feel a "click" when I push it.  Perhaps
it is faulty, or perhaps I needed to push it harder and longer.

 

It could have been many things or a combination of things, but my best guess
is the CB or the connectors on the power cord were not making secure
connection.  However in that case I think there would be no power to the
radio.  

 

Thanks again for all your suggestions
