[Elecraft] K3 Front Panel Problem

[Ellam, Timothy St. J.]

Hi



I have an issue with my K3. I keep the antennas physically disconnected here and the radio had not been turned on for a week or so. Turned it on last night and it initially worked fine. Made a few Qs on 6m.



I then noticed that I could not switch the VFOs back and forth using the A/B button. Most of the buttons on the right hand side of the radio are "dead". I cannot change band, but can change mode. Some buttons appear to be "remapped". ie: the RX button turns the NB function on and off. The ANT button does the same thing for the NR function.



The archives suggest this can be fixed by using the restore feature (Holding Low Cut/Nom knob and cycling the power). I tried that 9saving the config first), but no luck. The Norm button also does not seem to be functioning correctly (pushing the knob has no effect, but I can change the cut).



Any ideas? Is there another to try a full restore?
