Phil,
He can update the K3 firmware all in one "fell swoop" after downloading
the latest K3 Utility - same for the P3.
He will have to run the TX Gain Calibration (again using K3 Utility), so
he will need a dummy load that is flat up through 6 meters.
If I recall correctly, the tables that hold the TX Gain data were moved
in one of the firmware upgrades, and that is why he needs to do the TX
Gain Calibration.

To the K3/P3 utility experts…
A friend of mine, owner of K3/P3, has not updated his K3/P3 firmware, nor
utility programs, in at least 3 years, possibly 4 years. The loss of his
antenna, a divorce, and a move from one state to another lead to his long
downtime.
Now, he is anxious to get back on the air and fire up the old K3/P3. He asked
me for instructions, I told him the following:
1. Get the latest versions of the utility programs for the K3 and P3 first.
2. Only need to update the latest set of software/firmware files since they
are inclusive of all previous changes.
