Gary,

If K3 Utility does not do the job for you, use the K3 menu directly - 
see page 51 in the manual.

Go into the menu and set all your filters to ON.  Set FLx BW, FLx FRQ, 
FLxGn, FLX ON for each filter.  Then set FLTX to the appropriate filter 
per mode.  For CW and SSB set it to the 2.7 (or 2.8 filter),  For AM, 6 
kHz if available, otherwise the 13kHz, for FM the 13kHz if installed.  
K3 Utility should show you the same thing as recorded in the menu.

Make sure the filters are plugged in the K3 RF board from highest to 
lowest as indicated on the silkscreen.

Has it been working before? or is this a recent problem?  If working 
before, what has changed?

73,
Don W3FPR
