I went up to my remote ham shack to take out the ham gear for the
winter, and turn off the heat. I had a K3 with P3 panadaptor there for
my ten meter station, and when I started disconnecting things, I heard
something rattling around inside the P3. (?) When I got home and opened
it up I found an RJ-11 receptacle rolling around inside the box. The
whole assembly had fallen off the front panel PC board. I am not sure
how this would happen. The thing is surface mount soldered to the
board. I think this connector is only used for testing. I am not sure
what to do at this point. My hands are a bit shaky to try to fix it
myself. Or maybe I just leave it alone?
