[Elecraft] Fwd: Re: K3 SHUTTING DOWN

[Don Wilhelm]

Colin,

Does the K3 shut down operating into a dummy load when TUNE is selected? 
  If so, then there is a problem with your K3 - contact support.

If it operates fine into a dummy load in TUNE, then suspect a PA 
temperature problem.

It may be that you have a bad PA, but again the folks at K3support can 
help you with some checks to determine the real source.
