[Elecraft] KX3 Utility Firmware load status question

[Dick Dievendorff]

If you don't have the P3 SVGA option installed, you should expect N/A to
appear in the Installed column for those rows related to the SVGA adapter
(SVGA and FPGA rows).

What am I thinking!!  Or, writing...

I meant to say P3, not KX3.  Same question but applied to P3.  Yes, my KX3
looks correct.

there could be a serial communication problem. Does it always display "N/A"?
Try clicking the "Check Revisions Now" button and see if that helps. Try
setting the KX3 RS232 speed to 38400 if it is not already.

the version numbers of the firmware loaded on the KX3 as well as the
firmware available for the KX3 (the two columns).  But, for the loaded
firmware, only the version number for MCU is shown, the other version
numbers are indicated N/A.  Now, for each of these N/A entries, there is a
corresponding entry in the "available" (next column to right) with the
actual version number.
