This has happened to me on couple of occasions while puttering around in back of my radio bench. The Anderson Power-Poles are convenient but have virtually no retention. If this happens, you must use the "Parameter Initialization" routine on page 63 of the manual. NOTE: This will NOT work if you have the RS-232 cable connected!!!

Then reload all your configuration settings using the K3 Utility program. You DID save the settings, didn't you?

My apologies if this has been asked before.

When reading various posts concerning the operation of the K3 transceiver, I get the impression that if the radio is powered off by simply removing the 12 volt source, as opposed to using the K3 front panel switch, there is the possibility of scrambling the memory that manages the configuration of the set. Is this true?

If not, then no problem.

But, if this is true, are there any plans to implement some sort of memory protection scheme, such as including a memory "keep alive" system powered from an internal or external source? Your comments please.
