Being Friday 13th, I have to share this experience with everyone!
I installed the newest firmware on May 12th, not Friday the 13th and everything worked fine. When I turned the radio on today (Friday 13th) my K3 had no RF output and showed an SWR of >25/1 on 15M. All of the other bands were fine. I tested the antenna (a beam) with another radio and 15M on the antenna was fine. Being Friday the 13th, I even check that the radio was set to the proper antenna output on 15M...still no output. Okay, not being superstitious, I went to the K3 utility and restored my previous configuration. 15M now worked! I then went back and restored the new configuration I saved after the latest firmware update yesterday. Wonderful things happen, the output on 15M was now working again. I checked the firmware installed on once again had the latest firmware installed. What can I say! I think the Ham Radio the gremlins that reside in everyone's shack had their fun and stopped playing with me.... I'm glad I'm not a Triskaidekaphobic!
