[Elecraft] K3 problem solved.!!!

[ws6x.ars at gmail.com]

Josep,
Apparently the 100 Watt PA has been disabled. Go to "Config" (Press and hold MENU), rotate VFO B until you see "KPA3", then rotate VFO A to select "PA   nor."
Remember, it is always a good idea to back up your K3 configuration. Use the K3 Utility to do a Config Backup. If you ever have a problem, you can always restore the K3 from that configuration file.
Buena suerte!

Howdy guys, good new here.!!!
just to let y´all know that I have finally solved the problem in my K3..!!!
A Ham friend has given me a old cable Serial-USB and it has worked.!! The K3 is now running again.! Very happy here so I don´t need to send it to Italy.!
Theres one thing I don´t understand and it is related with the PWR, I can see only 12W.! Why it´s not sending 100W like the first days I used it.? I does not go over 12W (?), Can that be due to high SWR.? The tuner has matched the antenna but...(?) Not 100W out by now, any tips.?
Thank you so much for all your help.!
