[Elecraft] K3 Firmware Download Warning

[Bill]

Yesterday, I downloaded the most  recently-relased firmware updates for my K3.  After the download, the rig went dead in the water.  After three hours of work with Dale at Elecraft, we determined that the newest firmware available on the website has major compatibility issues with some, if not all recent K3's.  After re-installing the 3.97/1.09/2.58 packages, all was well again.  Dale tells me he has had three cases of this incompatibility recently.



This is just a warning to think twice before downloading the latest and greatest, until the good folks on the West Coast get all the bugs out!!
