Hi Everyone,
I have a 2.34/1.89 firmware loading issue to report.
My K3 #371 has been functioning perfectly until this evening. It has the
sub-receiver installed which has been working fine as well.
Tonight I decided to load 2.34 Beta and did so successfully.... but
after a second attempt.
My first attempt resulted in no DSP being loaded in DSP1 but it did
load into DSP 2. I got the following error message 'E000202' on the Main
display and 'ERR DSE' on the VFO B display.
After my successful second attempt load I then got 'ERR PL 1' on the VFO
B display when changing bands. It disappeared after a second or two but
reappeaed on each band change. Lots of background noise but no signals.
I attempted to recalibrate PL1. After the recal. it now displays ERR VCO
E 00005 and then Er VC4 E00255.
I reverted back to 2.23 and now get 'ERR PL 2'. So I again re calibrated
the VCO's main and sub and all appears to be ok after several
recalibration attempts. But I am back to running 2.23. I'd like to try 2.34
What's happening here?
I am at a loss to figure it out.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
I also e-mail K3 support but thought I would post here as it is a
holiday weekend.
