You can ship the radio back and have Elecraft check it out. If it is a
board problem I believe they will take care of it for you.

Subject: [Elecraft] Fw: K3 2803 Firmware Problem
The problems continue with K3 #2803
The problem is still unable to load FPF or DSP firmware. MCU loads fine.
I have used two different computers in an attempt to load the firmware. On
each computer I have used the KUSB and a 9 pin straight thru serial cable.
That doesn't work.
I have reloaded the K3 utility to make sure it is the latest version and
still no luck.
In numerous e mails with Gary we thought trying a new front panel board
might work. Wrong , After installing a new front panel board same problem.
On page 63 of the owners manual if I hold in the shift / Lo knob while
turning on the power I am suppose to see EE INT. All I see is ERR EE2.
The K3 is a nice looking radio and maybe one day it will work but , Right
now , Very frustrated to say the least.

Subject: K3 2803 Firmware Problem
Good morning all , I have a problem with firmware upload to my K3. All I
can load is MCU. The FBF fails at load address x0040.
I have used two different computers using both a 9 pin straight through
and the KUSB. I have the latest K3 utility.
When loading from a past configuration I receive an error message Verify
Failed at EEPROM address 131.224
I have corresponded with Gary at Elecraft several times and did check
those items he suggested. As of yet , Gary's suggestion have not worked.
I have yet to get a full firmware download. Does anyone have suggestions
for me to check or does the radio have a problem and need to go
back for repair at Elecraft?
Thank you
Glenn
