I attempted to update my K3 to version 3.68 and now my K3 no longer works.

It was working fine.  I updated to version 3.67 yesterday.  I tuned the 
radio on just now.  It was working fine.  I downloaded and extracted 
version 3.68.  I opened the K3 Utility.  The utility read the K3's 
firmware and saw that the 3.67 MCU file was newer.  I clicked on "Send 
all new firmware to K3".

The K3 screen said something like MD D.  The utility said something like 
D didn't echo, remove power.  I couldn't turn the K3 off, so I removed 
power.  I reconnected power and turned on the K3.  Now the red TX led 
flashes slowly and I can't turn off the K3 without removing power.

Now what???
