[Elecraft] P3 - still in trouble with new firmware

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

Rechecking stuff for Paul at Elecraft. I think the last P3 upgrade I did
was a "Send All New Firmware". When I checked just now I had 1.24 SVGA in
the firmware available list but the menu display said I was running 1.16
SVGA. I had loaded 1.50 for the P3. Now rerunning the load firmware, but
using a copy ALL firmware action. The FPGA stuff takes quite a while.

         ......

OK, that fixed it. Now have 1.24 showing in SVGA firmware menu item. Have
NB in upper right hand corner of  screen.

I may have screwed up the firmware load, but shouldn't "Send All New
Firmware" have sent 1.24 over in the same session that loaded 1.50? I just
turned on the firmware install and then went and did something else. Wasn't
watching it.

I used the SVGA all through the NAQP contest and the SVGA performed
brilliantly. Hugely useful. But it is clear I was using firmware 1.16.

I guess my bad on the earlier firmware load.

73, Guy K2AV
