Erwin DK5EW sed:
Found out also that there is a brocken pin at the PA board at jumper at 
P68A male connector. This brocken pin still remains in the according 
female connector. So lots of problems.

Dear OM Erwin,

Information that may help you is in an Elecraft Note that is attached to 
this e-mail (but will not get to the reflector, so I have cced you 
directly).  Problems with pins carrying power to the KPA3 are pretty 
common.

The applicable note, KPA3 Power Connector Replacement Revision B, June 
30, 2017, used to be available on the Elecraft website.  But now the 
relevant webpage https://elecraft.com/pages/mods-notes-alerts is devoid 
of information.  I have no idea why this was done.

Because the gold-plated male and female connectors are fairly common 
components, it may be cheaper for you to obtain them in Germany rather 
than having them shipped from California.

73, Paul W8TM
