Hi Joe AE8K;
Here are my Notes re Hi Sig;
Keith WE6R
*_HI SIG ERR error (NOT HI RFI)
_*Shorted Q8 & Q9 on RF board with burnt R66 (E500610 K3S, E500247 K3)
and maybe R75 (E500265)?
Fix; replace Q8 & 9 E580079 (E580033 is end-of-life) and burnt parts.
*_On K3”S”_*, make sure R66 is 15 ohmE500610 not 10ohm. We briefly
shipped with it 10 and reverted back, **AND at the same time changed R60
& 75 so if R66 is 10 ohm, change it to 15 E500610 and R60 to 150 ohm
E500251 and R75 6.2 ohm E500265
