[Elecraft] K3 - RF Calibration Error

Updated to 4.10 firmware plus 1.3.9.3 Utility both #311 and #1435.

 

When I run RF Calibration using the XG-2 and selecting "Compute REF Gain
using a signal source" on both rigs I get the following error:

Upper display - "E 040 16A"

Lower display - "ERR DSE"

Have to power down to get rid of the error and to hear the sidetone. Then
the signal is only S-5 using the XG-2.

 

Then I tried RF Calibration "Using factory default RF Gain Calibration
data".

Everything seems fine but no audio. If I move the AF Gain Control I get the
following error:

Upper Display - "E 041EA6"

Lower Display - "ERR DSE".

But still no audio. Power down and up and audio seems fine with S9 with XG-2
now connected. 

 

Tried reloading the firmware and even going back to 4.03. Same result.

 

Anyone have this happen? Any ideas? RF Calibration always worked before. Is
this a cockpit error on my end?

 

Tnx

N2TK, Tony
