Just got around to installing 5.10. Good thing I remembered Wayne's
caveat to re-run the power calibration routines in the K3 Utility as I
have a tendency to forge ahead without reading the "release notes" that
carefully.
I had been having a few minor power output glitches when running the
KPA500 amp, and the re-run of the 50 watt power out cleared those
glitches up nicely. Probably the newer FW had somewhat to do with it
also.
I'd been putting the upgrade off as everything was working well enough
for my operating style until I recently ordered the KSYN3A modules and I
realized the latest FW rev I had was 5.01 so I figured I'd better
upgrade to 5.10 at least.
Looking forward to the arrival of the new synthesizers, especially with
the faster QSK switch times so I won't have to lose SPLIT when sending
QRQ (my version of QRQ is only around 45 wpm as with my Tinnitus
everything blurs beyond 45). I used to be able to run 60+ and there is
one guy (will remain nameless) who always calls me at 60+ when I call CQ
and refuses to slow down to where I can copy him. He seems to think
he's helping me get faster but that's medically impossible now.
