Don, Thank you for your very informative and helpful post - this clears up quite a bit of how the ACC2 interfacing is taken care of. I contacted Elecraft support and was given my original settings (I had neglected to save) and restored the unit to factory fresh status - with the exception of

Thinking about this - perhaps with ACC2 set to Lo=PTT the unit is attempting to transmit and notices it is out of band and just hangs up the firmware??? What's strange is that this behavior does not happen until I try the Temp Compensation routine - which you would think would only affect the

Thanks for looking into this Wayne. I hope my discovery helps. Elecraft support is fantastic- and I'm continually impressed with your active involvement in the Elecraft community. If only all companies were run the same way, the world would be a much better place. Cheers and 73's -David --

Love my KX3 but ran into some strange behavior as of late with some hangs. Running MCU 2.25 / DSP 1.30 when trying to change ACC2IO settings, when I turn VFOA to LO=Ptt the unit hangs on the LO=Ptt option - display freezes at LO=Ptt and I can't PWR off using ATU/BAND-. I've tried re-flashing

David, What do you have connected to the ACC2IO jack? Is there possibly anything there that could be holding that signal to ground? 73, Don W3FPR On 10/18/2014 9:27 AM, David - KI4UVC wrote: Love my KX3 but ran into some strange behavior as of late with some hangs. Running MCU 2.25 / DSP

Nothing is connected to ACC2 currently - I was mucking around with menu settings. I tried reverting back to MCU2.23 and am having the same issue - radio hangs at any change in ACC2 settings. I didn't have this issue until I did the Extended Temp Calibration routine. Radio is in the low 6000

David, Contact KX3support(at)elecraft.com to see if they can offer any additional wisdom. If it has to go back to Elecraft for work, that contact at support is the starting place to obtain an RSA. 73, Don W3FPR On 10/18/2014 10:53 AM, David - KI4UVC wrote: Nothing is connected to ACC2

David, I did not have my brain fully in gear on this situation before. The GPIO input is just that - an input to a 3 volt logic device with only a 500 ohm series resistor. So there is nothing to make it either a high nor a low level. In the digital world it is known as a 'floating input'
