Alan,

While it is "not nice" to 'brick' the K3, there is quick and easy recovery. Just follow the instructions in the manual or the K3 Utility Help file to 'Force a Firmware Download' - it takes only a minute or so. The worst part is the initial gut-feeling alarm signals that go off - it is not disaster, and easily fixed.

It has only happened to me once, and the cause was a computer glitch during a firmware download.

73,
Don W3FPR

Thanks Don.

Just trying to be ultra careful as I'll be using the same PC and port and don't want to brick the K3.
