Elecrafters,
i'm on vacation at a /p qth and K3 #2878 has quit working.
I have no power out. The display reads 0.0 watts when holding the tune 
button, regardless of mode.
In RX I hear noise from the headphones , but no signals. The noise 
sounds like the K3 sounds when no antenna is attached.

I attached my antenna to RX-IN , no joy
Also no signals on SUB-RX.

The only measurement gear i have right now is an ohmmeter and a powermeter.
I have no programming cable right now.

I should have mentioned that i had power out briefly. but the cable of 
the headphones was very close to the ladderline , in fact touched it, 
when i checked match by holding TUNE.

Any advice what to check?
