Do you have a saved K3 configuration file? If so, do an EEINIT (see Parameter Initialization in the manual) and reload the configuration.

That will give you something to accomplish while waiting for the support people to wake up this morning.

Hi Gary,

I was using text decode on transmit when suddenly very few of the buttons on the front panel of the K3 would perform their normal function. Some produced no response ie - MENU and CONFIG do not work at all, SUB does not work at all. Many buttons produce a response which is completely different from their intended function. The K3 is totally unusable. I tried to install the latest firmware and got the following on the K3 screen:

E O2OCOC
ERR DSE
Firmware failed to load

I now have a very expensive piece of equipment that is totally unusable.

I have the KAT500 on order but I am wondering if I should cancel that order as I will not be able to use it.

Can you please advise me of a way forward?
