[Elecraft] K3 intermittent low power issue

[N4OI - Ken]

[...] The issue ended up being with the LPA. Something heated up a diode
that loosened the soldered connection, creating an intermittent with an
associated transistor--which is why at times I would have full power and at
other times no power. Usually the transistor fails entirely, so this was a
bit more of a challenge--and of interest!--to the Elecraft support crew.

Thanks for the details, Paula.  My intermittent power problem returned after
reseating the boards...  If it occurs at low power, I will check with the
Elecraft support folks to see if the likely cause and remedy could be the
same as yours.  Thanks again!
