[Elecraft] K3 Sub Receiver problem with KSYN3A

[Jeff]

Thanks for the reply, I hope that it's the board, that way I can send in the "broke" one and see if they can fix it cheaper than a new one. That way I would be halfway to getting my K3 updated hi hi.

Anyway I got My dad's set up for him and he is tickled to have a good rig for CW. He'll just use RIT for DX and he is good with that for now.

73,
Jeff

Jeff,  not sure if anyone answered your real question,  but yes have seen several posts about the new Synth board stop working, and a couple not working from the factory,  same problem as you have,  no green light etc.
Seems to be some are having the problems,  not many but a few.

> I worked it with Howard from Elecraft and everything points to the board but also wanted to run it through here to see if anyone else had a problem like that. My K3 is an older one with the older Synthesizer boards so I can’t do any “swaptronix” with the boards.
