Good afternoon, Folks.
 
First off, I have NO COMPLAINTS WHATSOEVER on my K3/100 - Kit [S/N 2802]!  
 
I have five Filters installed [the bandwidths of which I won't mention fearing 
massive retribution - but personally they suite me just fine as I'm a 
CW operator only!], the Ant Tuner and the 1ppm Ref. Oscillator.  A super 
FB/fantastic rig!
 
I do have a question and I feel sure the answer will be "Operator Error"!
 
Here goes:
 
EVERY time I load a new version of Firmware to my rig or save the "current 
configuration" using the current version of the Utility, I have to do them 
both TWICE!
 
On the Firmware updating, all goes well with the FPF Load [every time] but when 
it comes to the DSP Load, it gets to about the 30% mark and locks up [every 
time].  I have to back out of the loading and start again and then it loads OK 
[every time] .
 
This malfunction freezes up the Utility stating afterwards that the Serial Port 
is closed and can't be opened because it is being used by another program.  [ ? 
]  It takes several moments for the Utility to recover.
 
Similar happenings when I "Save the Current Configuration".  It crashes my 
computer.  I have to re-boot and then it saves OK.  That is if the Serial Port 
has recovered.
 
I using the current version of the Utility for Windows XP.  I using a KEYSPAN 
USB to Serial Adapter.
 
Thanks for letting an old man rant & rave!
 
Best 73.
