Hard to say Jim. I have had my K3 since Nov 2007 and it only happened once and the one time that it did happen I neglected to close one of the applications that poll the K3. So I will chalk that one up to operator error.
Glad that you were able to resolve your issue. 73 Gregg -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]on Behalf Of Jim Spears Sent: Monday, March 16, 2009 8:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] K3/100 S/N 2295 back on line Thanks to Gregg for suggesting that I hold the power button for 10 seconds after power on. It is unclear that this truly fixed the problem or enabled download but it is true that after several tries, I was able to successfully reload all firmware and the radio is back on line. Geez, sure would hate to have to do this in middle of a contest or other important activity! Wonder what happened to cause the K3 to go into such a state that it was very difficult to recover from.
