Thanks Jim! That's very good news. Now just waiting on the K3S to
show up at my door. Maybe next week???????
I have the K3Utility on the computer and I have the Owners Manual in a
binder and have had so for 4 weeks. And I've read it several times too.

With all of the recent discussions related to firmware, I'm wondering
what will be loaded in the new K3S that I have on order. And more
importantly, how stable will it be.
I already serve as a beta test person for another company. I'm
really not interesting in taking on "another science project" of this
magnitude.
Hi Bob,
No undesired science projects here. Elecraft does not release
production firmware until it has been thoroughly tested. A dedicated
program called K3Utility is used to download firmware and load it to
your K3. It automatically queries the Elecraft ftp site for PRODUCTION
firmware, downloads it, and asks you if you want to upload it to your
radio.
Beta firmware is in a different directory, is clearly labeled as
such, and is NOT automatically accessed by K3Utility. To access beta
firmware, you must download it with a browser or ftp utility, and
unzip it to the directory on your local hard drive where K3Utility
stores its files.
