[Elecraft] loading new firmware

[Don Wilhelm]

Todd,

That message sounds like the download could not be verified (checksum 
errors, etc.).  I would try downloading again (get files from Elecraft) 
and see if that resolves the problem.  Computers are handy, but they are 
not "gods".  There is always a chance of downloading a file that turns 
out to be corrupt (missing some bits here and there as opposed to being 
a file that has been hijacked by some virus).

73,

I have the new KSYNTH3a board and am about to install it.  Am I getting this error message because it is not installed yet? Do I need it installed in order to upgrade to version 5.14?
