[Elecraft] K3 Strange Problem

[Rick Bates]

Good catch Don.  And it should be noted that not all PL-259 mate properly if
the outer shaft of the SO-239 (or barrel connector) is too short.  It should
be seated, tight and with no movement in any direction.  Though I don't use
pliers; I just crank on it and check them periodically.

Loose PL-259s can cause symptoms like that.
