When it came time to turn the K3 on, all seemed OK and it operated very well for three days and then gradually started to 'play-up'. This got worse and worse, to the point where the K3 finally gave up altogether, and NO I am not a screwdriver merchant, I never put a screwdriver near it.

I am one happy guy, the Elecraft is an amazing radio and I have had a few radios' but not of this very high quality. Thank-you, thank-you, I can not thank all those involved with the repair of my beautiful K3-100 enough, right down to the people that I spoke to on the phone!
