[Elecraft] Help! I have bricked my K3.

[Don Wilhelm]

Bill,

Try this - first download the latest K3 Utility and get the new firmware 
files as usual (Check for New Firmware).
Then using the Advanced tab of K3 Utility,   Check the DSP1 box and 
click "Load checked firmware".
When that completes, do the same for the FPF loading only that firmware.
After you do that, you can exit from the Advanced screen and the Send 
all Firmware to the K3.

Let us know if that works.

73,
Don W3FPR
