[Elecraft] K3: "XMIT" produces Display "0 W" suddenly

When My K3 (kit) was about a year old it developed a similar issue.
In my paranoia to not damage the TMP connectors, I had not used enough force 
to press home the TMP located just under the right forward corner (Toward 
the front panel) of the sub-receiver on the main board.
I actually traced the signal to that point!
Now I'm a little less paranoid and make sure the TMP connectors are firmly 
pressed home.

I have learned from Elecraft that this may be indicative of two blown
FET's in the 10w amp stage inside the K3.

gremlins abound. And all while I was away doing chores outside. Since I
had the dogs with me it must have been the inside cats!
