If the KPA500 utility connected to the KAT500, I think whoever at Elecraft maintains the utility software needs to add some code to prevent that from happening.

Somehow I managed to use the KPA500 Utility to connect to my KAT500. It actually worked and downloaded the KAT500 firmware and installed it. I was, of course, on a different port, but I didn't pay close enough attention to the which unit was using which port. Thanks for all of your feedback. 73 de Carl N8VZ Kevin wrote: > Make that KAT500 utility. > > > On 11/14/2016 1:43 PM, Kevin wrote: >> Are you running the latest KPA500 utility? >> >> >> >> On 11/14/2016 11:29 AM, Carl Jón Denbow wrote: >>> I'm experiencing a weird issue related to the FW REV menu entry.
