[Elecraft] KX-3 Problem Putting Cases Together

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Bruce, do you have the loudspeaker cable dressed round the speaker as shown
in the assembly manual? That can cause your symptom if it's not in place.

Just finished KX-3 serial #328 and all is working well.

However, I noted that the lower side of the case, where the speaker is
located, seems to hit on something inside when going together.
I can not fully seat the top, so the end flanges are even with the bottom
panel, without causing the bottom middle to slightly "bulge" out.
Some experimentation shows a "rocking" on an obstruction located near the
middle of the lower part of the board.

I've checked a dozen times, looking for a cable, either ribbon or battery
binding.
I removed the ribbon cable, and the case does not have pressure on the
center when installing.
Seems that my unit has some sort of interference between the cable
connections, could the top plug and socket be sticking down far enough to
hit the bottom?

Any suggestions?

Thanks!


Cordially,
