[Elecraft] K3 - KAT3 C10 blew up!

[KF4VTT]

Wow...This happened to me today on very similar circumstances.  I was warming
up for the VHF contest and "POP".  I was having problems get the 6M beam to
tune with a low SWR.  Strange...it was a perfect 1:1 on the antenna
analyzer.  C10 finally burned open leaving the parallel inductor to complete
the path to the antenna port.  When I get back to the states I will replace
the capacitor and hope for the best.

73,
