[Elecraft] KXPA100 Loosing Communications/ Turns PA Mode Off

[Irwin Darack]

I recently checked and upgraded all of the Firmware with my KX3 (MCU =
2.27, & DSP = 1.3), KXPA (1.32) and PX3 (1.16) that was older.

I found that  it lost communications from the KX3 to the KXPA100. Hence it
results in turning PA Mode Off. Even when I go back into the Menu settings,
turn PA Mode on again, It results in turning PA Mode back off again.

Even though I had full communications between the KX3 and KXPA100, to
resolve the problem, I had to going into the utility program for the PX3,
making sure it was communication with my computer, which it was, then
update the KX3 Menu PA Mode to on.

I am not sure where the glitch is occurring. I have the standard cable set
up as in the PX3 Manual and all data rates are set to 38400 baud. It seems
to be related to the PX3.

Is there a way to extend the time out for the KXPA100?

Thanks, Irwin
