[Elecraft] K3 - RF Gain Calibration Error

2011-01-09 Thread Geoffrey Downs
This afternoon I performed an RF gain calibration on the main and sub receivers using my XG2 and K3 Utility Version 1.3.10.15. All went well. Then I realised that, contrary to the instructions, I had not turned off TEXT DEC. So I turned it off and re-did the RF gain calibration. All went well

Try it with the latest version of the K3 Utility 1.3.11.5 and see if that helps. 73, Tom Childers Radio Amateur N5GE Licensed since 1976 QCWA Life Member 35102 ARRL Life Member Retired Professional C# Software developer http://www.n5ge.net On Sun, 9 Jan 2011 20:18:43 -, Geoffrey Downs

Geoff: I had this same problem back in mid October 2010 (may still have it... I just haven't tried to do the RF Cal recently) and swapped several emails with Dick Dievendorff on the subject. We came up with nothing and he was going to confer with Lyle when he got back from vacation.

Geoff: I had also forgotten that I had installed the upgrade to the K3 Utility. I just ran the test and it worked properly on both the main Rx and the Sub Rx using v 1.3.11.5. Sorry to have bothered you, Dick... 73, Ken K3IU ~~~ On 1/9/2011 3:50 PM, Ken K3IU wrote:

Had the same problem in the Fall. Solution (for me) was to download the latest firmware into a fresh directory (no other files), and re-install the latest version of the Utility. Calibration proceeded normally after that. 73, Kent K9ZTV K3 #21 On 1/9/2011 2:50 PM, Ken K3IU wrote: Geoff:

Thank you Kent and also thanks to Tom N5GE and Ken K3IU for their replies. Downloaded the latest utility but still got the error message on doing the RF gain calibration on the sub rx. Restarted PC and K3, redownloaded and installed 4.22 f/w and re- performed RF gain calibration. This time no
