[Elecraft] K3 - Display flashes "thr 4 OFF" intermittently

[Fred Jensen]

Has your K3 received the coveted Golden Connector Pins?  Mine [S/N 642] 
began doing things like that, especially on the BAND+/- and MODE +/- 
buttons.  Pressing really hard would sometimes make it work.  The K-POD 
proved to be a work around, but the new connector pins on a trip to the 
factory for another problem solved it.
