[Elecraft] K3 Utility revision 1.1.3.6 ?

2008-03-09 Thread K4tmc

I pulled up Wayne's note from March 7 about the new K3 Firmware (MCU 1.75 / 
DSP 1.57), and went to the K3 Software Page to download the latest update 
utility (1.1.3.6) that was mentioned.  It's not there.

Can I use the existing utility (1.1.2.28) to download the new firmware and 
expect no problems?  Or,  should I wait until the new utility is available?

You can use any K3 Utility version from 1.0.12.7 forward to load the most
recent firmware.

There are reliability improvements for some USB to Serial Adapter issues and
a bug fix to save/restore config in the newer K3 Utility version, so we are
encouraging people to move forward there as well.

1.1.3.6 was announced a bit too soon. The most recent public version of the
K3 Utility is 1.1.2.28, the one you have. 1.1.3.6 is still in field test.
The new feature in 1.1.3.6 is a terminal tab for CW and RTTY, and it hasn't
received enough testing yet.

Interestingly, while I'm running 1.1.1.28, that program and, apparently
therefore the display on the K3, thinks a newer K3 Utility Program
is available.

A minor glitch, probably brought about by the premature availability
of 1.1.3.6.

The K3UtilityVersionInfo.txt file was prematurely updated.  If you go to the
Firmware page, check Copy new files from Elecraft server into local folder
and click Check Versions now, the K3 Utility should copy the
k3UtilityVersionInfo.txt file with the proper current version, 1.1.2.28,
into your local folder, and that message should go away.  The current
version should be 1.1.2.28.
