Dwight...  Without a "theory of operation" manual and a good schematic, 
it's really difficult to tell what would cause this.  I'd like to see 
Elecraft publish an addendum to assist troubleshooting this amp.

Would a defective interlock switch cause this or a loose circuit board 
plug?  That would be too easy.  270 and 60 volts run to the PA assembly. 
You would have to isolate the PA assembly from the power supply for 
troubleshooting.

Give Elecraft a call and they will help you out!
