[Elecraft] not receiving PSK or any SSB audio

Julie,

Cables were added when the KXPA100 was added - check them (by 
substitution if possible).
Connect the KX3 to a known good antenna connection and see if it 
'plays'.  If so, look for the problem in your KX3/KXPA100 antenna system 
- bad cable, recent ice storms created antenna connection problems, etc.

If it does not 'play' on the same antenna that your K3 receives well 
with, then you can say it is a KX3 problem.  It might be that something 
was inadvertently changed on the KX3, so check the gain settings and see 
if there might be something in the menu settings that look suspicious.
