First thing I'd check is to verify you have the correct antenna port selected. I have yet to meet any K3 owner who hasn't made that mistake at some point, your's truly included. ;-)

  Good Morning

  I purchase a used K3 a couple of weeks ago and received it last thursday. I 
  hooked it up and it worked GREAT.  Used it for SSB and CW contacts on 80M 
  and ssb on 10M.  Shut it down about 8pm last night. Turned it on this 
  morning, and it has white noise audio but receives no signals at all. 
  Nothing showing on the S meter either not even noise.   NO POWER OUTPUT 
  either.

  Has anyone every seen a sudden failure like this?  I'm heartbroken as I am 
  fearful of a astronomical repair charge from Elecraft and the person I 
  bought it from is offering no warranty at all and since it was used I 
  totally understand that part.

  Thanks in advance

  Ronnie W5SUM
