You may have broke the DSP firmware by keeping a key pressed too long. Power down, remove from power for 30 seconds, then power up while holding the VFO button unfilled you hear a response from the speaker.
Then try a reload.

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? 73 from Charles Rodgers - M0BIN ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
