[Elecraft] Power Locked/Set
Brilliant idea Mike. When a single knob has multiple functions it is way too easy to accidentally adjust mic gain. John KK9A From: Mike Wetzel mjwetzel at comcast.net Date: Wed Feb 21 22:00:12 EST 2018 I knew about the power set nor/per band didn't know about the 'tap 1' to lock mic/cmp/pwr. Now that I know that I sure wish a 'tap 2' would only lock mic/cmp and not pwr. Any chance? Would others find that useful? After setting the mic/cmp I never want to change them but I do need to change the pwr and of course when changing pwr I end up changing the cmp.

Re: [Elecraft] POWER LOCKED
Bob, Given how old the firmware version was when you got the rig, something else you will want to do is go through the mods and updates list on the Elecraft website. The FW rev level is from 2008, and it’s a good bet you’re missing quite a few needed and worthwhile hardware and board-level updates as well. It might even be worth your while to send the radio to Elecraft, have them go through it, and bring everything up to date. In many ways, it will be a different (better) radio when you get it back (or do the mods and updates yourself). Enjoy … :-) > On Feb 21, 2018, at 8:42 PM, Bob Gibson via Elecraft >wrote: > > Carl..

Re: [Elecraft] POWER LOCKED
Bob, What do you mean by "Power Lock"? Will the K3 not power on? or can you not move the POWER knob? In either case, I would suggest you first remove all cables from the K3 except the power cable and a dummy load and see if it clears. Did you use the latest K3 Utility to download the firmware? If not, download K3 Utility from the ELecraft website and re-load all firmware (you may have to "Force a Firmware Download" see manual. If all else fails, you may have to do an EEINIT (See Reset to Factory Defaults in the manual), and then reload the firmware. If you had the K3 set up as you like it, hopefully you saved a configuration (see K3 Utility). If so, you can Restore Configuration using K3 Utility. 73, Don W3FPR On 2/21/2018 5:48 PM, Bob Gibson via Elecraft wrote: I just bought a used K3 and I did a update on the rig..all seems to go OK but I get a power lock and no output from the rig..What did I do wrong?
