FWIW the BETA 5.54 appears to have resolved an issue some of us were having 
with our K3 (with the KIO3B Interface Option installed) and the K3S with the 
KIO3B as a standard part of the rig.

 

In that … a logging program (Log4OM) when shutting down would drop the audio on 
the K3 and K3S to nil.  A slight touch of the shift or width knob or the XFIL 
key would restore the audio.  I had posted about this issue on this reflector a 
while back with no replies.

 

Reverting back to FW 5.33 or 5.38 would seem to resolve the issue.  FW 5.50 and 
up seemed to introduce the problem.

 

I tested with two different computers and reloaded the logging s/w, replaced 
cables and more all to no avail.

 

Granted a logging program shutting down audio on a rig is small potatoes among 
many of the issues I read and learn about here and everyone’s operations, but 
it still was a valid problem.  I’m glad it appears that the Beta 5.54 has 
possible cured my (and a number of others) hiccup.

 

I know the great folks at Elecraft will get the bugs worked out … sometimes it 
just takes additional steps and time.

I installed the newest K3 firmware, 5.54, reset DXLab, MMTTY, and the K3 to 
2125 and still get the 850 Hz error when transferring a spot from SpotCollector 
to the radio.

 

I changed all back to low tones, 1225/1445, and get the same error.

 

Tony, K4QE, reported that he had the problem until he reverted back to K3 
firmware release, 5.38, so the firmware must be the problem.

 

I need the newer firmware for my K-Pod, so I'll live with the apparent defect 
RTTY in 5.54 until it's resolved.
