Well, the PS is a switcher...Astron ss-30.

The voltage on the rig shows about 12.8 on Xmit with about 18.75 amps  Nothing 
is hot.  Wires.  Connectors.  Rig.  PS.  I am a little perturbed at the voltage 
drop on the ps.  I would thing it would not drop that far, but I am not sure how 
accurate the meter in the K3 really is.

Has not done it again.  Never has it done it before either.

This has not happened to me before....

Running some FD here on CW for about an hour in an AC room  

PA 35C FP 31C

The rig just went off.  Dead.  Power supply is ON.  Pressed the power 
button....comes back on.

Anyone see this before....I have not.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't 
have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any 

Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common 
Sense divine?

Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind.

Never interfere with anything that isn't bothering you.
