The overheating of R3 and subsequent dry joint of its solder pads is a stock fault on the Echostar SMPS. Baking of the board area around it can also affect other components adjacent to it.
The resistor often keeps its value but loses its identification marks, as you have found.
When replacing, use extended lead lengths to keep the resistor proud of the board.
