Working with Rob at Elecraft Service, I removed and checked the KIO3 
Digital I/F board and found L1 blown.  L2, L3, R12, and R13 are all 
good.  L1 is on the ground lead from the sub-D9 connector, pin 5 to 
ground in the K3.  Definitely blown as there is a carbon smudge next 
to L1.  I installed a wire jumper but still inoperational.

Going to return the entire KIO3 unit to Elecraft for repair.
