Hello everyone,

Putting together K3 SN 4094, and running into the following problem when
trying to complete the 5 watt transmitter calibration procedure from within
the K3 Utility.  Please see text below for the response from the K3
Utility.  Any thoughts?  As you can see, I tried running the calibration
process a few times, and each time I reached the same result - although in
different places.

Starting 5 watt calibration
Calibrating at 1.900 MHz
Calibrating at 3.750 MHz
Calibrating at 5.366 MHz
IsSamplingComplete: Unexpected response "DS@@@@1\xB0>I\x90\x80;" to "DS;"
State 153
Calibration power settled at "  5.2 W ;"
5 watt calibration failed
Elapsed time: 12 seconds
