[Elecraft] [K3] Temporary loss of rx/tx

[GW0ETF]

Twice last night I experienced a short lived loss of (rf) power. Everything
just went very quiet on receive and there was no rf output either. It was
the same on both receivers, all antenna inputs etc and there were no error
messages flagged.

Makes me suspect the 49MHz reference on the KREF3 board, or the tmp
connectors. I've poked around and can't get any repeat so I'm wondering if
there would be any other source of such a fault. Many moons ago I soldered
in place the oscillator module on that board as it was a bit wobbly in the
socket and I decided I wouldn't be upgrading to the high stab version; never
mis-behaved previously. Perhaps dirty contacts, but why no error messages??
