Hello,

I have been away for 3 months. The K3 was completely disconnected from 
antennas, power supply, including removing the PP from the back of the rig.
Today I decided to update the firmware and when I turned the power on, I 
got err BP1, then LPF, IO3, IF1, XV3, AT3, PA1, and BP3. After that, it 
worked fine. I hooked it up to dummy load and got full power on all 
bands...turned it off, same result, BP1, LPF, etc. I could use any of 
the rocker switches/buttons on the front panel and any of them would 
cycle to next error msg, in the same order as the first time..then work 
ok. I had an older firmware so decided to put 4.39 in the radio, along 
with the DSP1/DSP2. AFter the successful download, same thing....power 
up....BP1, LPF, etc.

Any ideas, suggestions?
