I got the KPA500 RS-232 hooked up to the radio laptop finally and loaded 
FW 1.38 -- all seems to have gone well.  This is the first time I have 
ever run the utility, I've been running with FW 1.11 that came with the 
KPA500 all this time.

I went to the Configuration tab to save the configuration, and it starts 
the save and then hangs.  Nothing works in the utility, I can't close it 
with CANCEL or just closing the window.  I ended it with Task Mangler. 
Restarted KPA500 utility and tried to look at the fault table with same 
results ... it starts, the window comes up and then everything is dead. 
  TM says the utility is running.

The KPA500 comes up on COM7 and the firmware load seems to have gone 
just fine.  I must be doing something wrong, no one else has reported 
problems.
