Hello All:

I upgraded my Firmware from K2MCU 2.02f ... to K2MCU 2.03d and the I/O =
Controller from 1.02  to K2IOC 1.07.  The K2 is equipped with the =
KPA100, and all was functioning very well before the Firmware upgrade(s) =
- all bands and all modes.

Now, I'm having problems with alignment and set-up.  Both chips are =
inserted correctly and the radio is functioning and responding "more or =
less" OK.  All menu functions appear to be active.  The problems appear =
to be related to the BFO settings and the Filter settings on 40M.  Some =
symptoms are: muted receive audio on some bands especially 40M; no =
effect of turning the main VFO dial on 40M; OP1 settings "sound" =
different than before upgrade, especially 40M.  I'm getting an INFO 232 =
message when performing CAL PLL (counter probe is in TP1 radio set to =
40M).  I reset the BFO and filter settings as they were before.

Do I need to reset the K2 and start over??  Any help greatly =
appreciated, as I'm wanting to resolve this before proceeding to build =
the KPA100, and split the radio into a second EC2.

73, and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Mark, K7MAS=20
