[Elecraft] [K3] Issue with HI CUR on 12m

[Alan - G4GNX]

I presume that you disconnected the feeder from the balun when you did 
the DC Ohms test? If not, there is something wrong because you should 
see almost a dead (DC) short through the primary of the balun.

I must admit I put off replacing my antenna until I was forced to. Might 
be the way to go. :-)
