[Elecraft] Newest P3 FW Upgrade (Workaround)

Paul,

I was using the latest Linux version and the load failed on the SVGA 
load asking me to power the P3 on an off again. I did that and it failed 
again. I then rebooted everything (K3, P3 and PC) and when I brought up 
the utility the only thing not updated was the SVGA code. I used the 
"Send New Firmware" option to just send that one and it worked.

I, unlike another user, had the SVGA option enabled at the time but do 
not have a monitor hooked up at this time.

Side issue with the Linux version is that when I told it to go download 
the latest from Elecraft it returned a 127 error (ftp???). I used my own 
ftp client and downloaded it locally to do the load.

Let me know if there is something I can test for you if you need it.

73,
Dave W8FGU
