[Elecraft] K3 with subrx - intermittent main RX problem and pwr out

[la3rk]

Thanks to all who responded. Checked and realigned all connectors, no
apparent errors, all male pins in place, connectors firmly seated.

Removed KRX3 and SUBIN/OUT module, reinstalled and reconnected. Similar
advice received both from group and from Elecraft support.

Still same problem, main rx uses signal. According to info from German ham,
he has had same problem and it was traced to faulty pin diode on SUBIN/OUT
module.

It is kind of amusing how a technical subject like this turns into
differences in languages use between USA and England. It would be nice if
posters keep to original subject and not stray off in a completely different
direction. Of 22 postings just 3 or 4 of them was on the original subject
and problem.

I am fairly certain that the problem is located within the SUBIN/OUT module,
but will check with Elecraft support. The easiest will be to change the
whole module, it is just a relay, some diodes and two small RF transformers.
