"Once you turn it OFF with the front panel switch, it needs to be turned on the same way. After that, yes the utility is fully functional."
I suspect the serial connection is getting confused and not properly reconnecting in the power up/down situation. I see that between the K3 and the Win4K3 suite frequently. If I power down the K3 I usually need to restart the computer to get all the serial connections talking again. This could well be an artifact of the specific serial connectors used. PRoblems with one band of chip versus another are a constant source of conversation. As per the engineers and the experience of others, the behavior you're seeing is not part of the design per se. 73 Chris NW6V ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
