Sounds like a couple of problems, then. Glad you're going again!
If COM6 is a device that echoes whatever is sent to it, it looks a lot like Elecraft devices when they're in their firmware boot loader. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of KD7YZ Bob Sent: Sunday, July 21, 2013 9:00 AM Cc: 'K3 List' Subject: Re: [Elecraft] XG3: unable to do Firware Upload On 7/21/2013, () sent : > This sounds like a marginal USB to serial adapter power situation. thanks info/help Dick. Quick Response! Mainframe. "seems" it was the 9v battery. I plugged into a 12v wall-charger, then got the d/l to work. however, I also had a confusing time with the pop-up which comes up and says xg3 ready for firmware ... on COM6 but I have this on COM9 .. so even though I selected COM9, maybe because I didn't close-port and go to COM9 .. rather than go straight to COM9 ... dunno .. anyway, the Firmware uploaded. thanks again ______________________________________________________________ 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
