[Elecraft] KX3 internal battery problem

[Jim Rhodes]

The batteries were close to full charge, each cell measured 1.3 volts, give
or take a little. And the charging supply is set to 14.5 V. So the BAT ERR
may be from being full charged, or a bad connection somewhere. I pulled the
charger board, unplugged the connector, checked that both sets of contacts
showed proper voltage then plugged it back in, then plugged charger board
back in. Guess I should have included that in original post. Time to call
the guys at Elecraft I guess.
