>From the K3 Owner's Manual: Forcing a Firmware Download If you accidentally load an old or incompatible firmware version and find the K3 unresponsive, do the following: (1) unplug the K3 from the power supply and wait 5 seconds; (2) plug the power supply back in; (3) hold the K3's POWER switch in; after about 10 seconds, you'll see the TX LED flash (you'll also see MCU LD on the LCD); (4) load the correct firmware version.
------------------------------------------ 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- I tried to download latest K3 utility version 1.12.10.10 and ended up with dead radio. I tried the help advise and their recommendations ending with still nothing working. I disconnected MicroHAM keyer and the power to K3, connected radio direct to computer with RS 232 outlet direct to COM port, turned power off to radio, reapplied power and tried to reload software and still only flashing TX LED with MCU LD showing without back lit screen. Any suggestion appreciated.
