[Elecraft] KX3: No RX - SWR 25 to 1

[Bill Conkling]

Open it up and check to make sure the BNC connector is plugged into the ATU.
It sounds like the antenna is not connected, you did check this, didn't you?

Hello guys
Need some help to start with.

I have a KX3 purchased in May. It has the roofing filter and the ATU unit.
I have not updated the firmware yet. Still with the one loaded in the
factory.
Recently the radio went mute. Also when trying to match the antenna with
the ATU, SWR displayed 25:1.
It did that sometimes sometimes. Each time it went back to normal.  Then
went mute definitely.
I have bypassed the ATU via the Menu, no change.
I have also verified if when mute it was insensitive, but receiving. No
receiving at all.

Any ideas to start with ? Thanks
