Sort of related to your problem...
Last week I bought the PX3 for my KX3. The PX3 required a much later firmware
installed in the KX3 than was in it (I had not kept it current; if it ain't
broke, don't fix it mentality). So, I downloaded the current KX3 utility, got
the latest firmware and

I've never had any problem on a firmware update, and the new load onto the

Steve,
Are you using the latest K3 Utility? If not, download that first.
Then follow the instructions in the K3 Utility help file to force a K3

If that does not work, perhaps Dick will help you.
Situation resolved. Kudos, as always, to the vigilant and knowledgeable
guys monitoring this reflector.
For others who have a K3 / P3 setup, you may wish to familiarize yourself
with the bootloader operation and sequencing of the combined pair of units.
