[Elecraft] K3 update problem

[Brian]

Hi, Stan!

You bet!  I have a laptop with Vista Home Basic and the K3 Utility 
program works great.

Remember, a key to the success of updating the K3 is how it is connected 
to the computer.  If you use an RS232 - USB adapter (ours or anyone 
else's) always make sure they have the correct drivers (see the K3 
Utility "Help" file for details).

Also, if you use a USB "hub", it should be externally powered with a 
"wall wort".  Hubs that use the host pc for power are usually 
underpowered and can cause download failures.

Let us know how well the update process works for you!
