Hello Jack, I haven't turned the station off for months but I can put 1.23 back into the KPA500 and play a bit with the order of power up to see if that affects anything.
I can tell you that when it (using 1.23) is not dropping to standby on band change (yes, I checked the menu), it doesn't matter if the band is changed from the KPA500 or the K3. I'll send more as I develop info. The station is the K3, P3 (powering up from the K3), KPA500 and KAT500 (everything is always on) using factory interface cables. Since no cable was moved, I've been able to show that it is a firmware issue. I look forward to the fix. You asked for more testing, so I put this back on the email lists so others can chime in if they have info. 73, Rick wa6nhc > -----Original Message----- > From: Jack Brindle [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2013 10:16 PM > To: Rick Bates > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA500 Stby flaw in V 1.23? > > Rick; > > I saw this for the first time this evening while testing fresh code.
