[Elecraft] KAT500 Power-on yields K3 into XMIT :Solved

[Jack Brindle]

Bob;

Check the K3-KPA500 AUX cable. It is possible that one of the pins is bent and is not touching another pin (or the shell), causing the problem. If so, try to carefully straighten the pin so as not to break it, although most likely you would need to replace the cable.
