Thanks Udo.
Did you have RF out while the KXV3B was installed? I get no RF either below or
above the 12Watt PA changeover point setting on the PWR control.

Subject: Re: [SPAM?] K3 TX calibration fails after KXV3B and SYN3A upgrade
David,
so did I in June, replaced KXV3-A by KXV3-B, TX calibration always
failed. Tried several times: back to KXV3-A, calibration works, again to
KXV3-B, calibration failed. Checked TMP's a hundred times, no fail for
sure. I didn't replace the SYN-boards.
I finally gave up after 1 week of constant dissapointment. Still running
old KXV3-A, have a KXV3-B for sale now.
Rig: K3 ser. 59xx, ESD workbench.

I'm hoping there is a quick fix for this (some fat-fingering or brain fade on
my part is entirely possible) as the K3 in question is one of four heading
to E6GG next month.
Yesterday I upgraded S/N 4474 with KXV3B and 2 x SYN3As and while the panels
were off, also did the 12V DC Out mod and gold connector replacement mod. I
have a full ESD bench and wore a wrist strap at all times.
After careful reassembly and TMP cable checks, I was able to update to
latest firmware and enable synths and KXV3B. But TX Calibration failed with
Calibration power settled at " 0W; " message.
I have tried the following remedies:
Panels off and examined all boards for correct seating.
Examined all TMP cables for correct seating.
Replaced panels.
Re-attempted Calibration - same error.
Re-flashed the firmware load. Load successful.
Re-attempted Calibration - same error.
Performed EE INIT
Loaded a known-good prior configuration (from March 2015 well before the
upgrade)
Re-attempted Calibration - same error.
Any suggestions for next steps gratefully received!
