[Elecraft] [K3] K3 memory question

[Roger D Johnson]

This has happened to me on couple of occasions while puttering around in back of 
my radio bench. The Anderson
Power-Poles are convenient but have virtually no retention. If this happens, you 
must use the "Parameter Initialization"
routine on page 63 of the manual. NOTE: This will NOT work if you have the 
RS-232 cable connected!!!

Then reload all your configuration settings using the K3 Utility program. You 
DID save the settings, didn't you?

73, Roger
