Bill:
You mention a good point......cables and connectors.
To that end, I find that just inserting a multipin plug into a connector
is not good enough. I know those retaining screws are a pain to deal
with, but they are there for a very valid reason. They assure the plug
is fully engaged and they assure it is secure. Frequent moving
equipment on the desk or shifting it around will allow a connector to
work partially loose. That causes intermittent and unreliable operations.
Always secure those connectors as intended. Time saving short cuts are
not allowed.

My K3, upon moving it to a new operating spot now has a tracking issue. I took
off the cabling to ease moving to another room. I reinstalled the cabling.
However several bands do not switch ON THE KPA 500 when I change bands on the
K3. If I hit the key the KPA 500 immediately changed to the band the K3 is on.
So RF switching works.
In the CONFIG Menu I went through the BAND MAP and made sure each BAND was
“IN”. But a couple although IN do not follow the K3.
Any suggestions ? I will update the Firmware since what I have is a few behind.
That may cure the problem. In the interim please share your suggestions.
Thanks
