I have successfully un-bricked my K3.

No attempt to load 4.83 would work. Even after updating to the current version 
of the utility and trying a different USB/Serial device. 

However, I was able to successfully load the 4.67 firmware. After I did that, I 
did a Send New Firmware to K3 operation, and it upgraded smoothly to 4.83.

I suspect something was out of sorts after my first attempt to load firmware 
using an old version of the utility. (I did not realize it was an old version 
at the time) Somehow, it was prohibiting even subsequent loads of 4.83 firmware.

I’m very happy to have my K3 back!
