[Elecraft] [K3 Remote] Scrolling VFO B Message "UPDATE K3 UTILITY"

[JBaumgarte at aol.com]

I also use a K3-K3 RemoteRig system.  Haven't had the problem Rick  
describes, but have had the system suddenly turn off the receiver on all  bands.  
Power-cycled and no change (tx functions all work).   Accidentally hit the 
shift knob and suddenly audio returned!   Happened  a second time a few days 
later and just slight movement on the  shift returned to normal!  I did note 
that the shift function had  dramatically and mysteriously moved.  The first 
time this happened I did  upgrade to latest OS, but did not upgrade the RRC 
boxes.  Anyone else see  anything like this?

I just  started up my K3-K3 RemoteRig setup and got E 040AA8 in the VFO A 
area and a  perpetually scrolling, puzzling message "UPDATE K3 UTILITY" in 
the VFO B area.  I power-cycled the rigs and all was well. I've had a number 
of other,  similarly puzzling but different startup glitches recently 
involving an E  message in VFO A and a loss of audio, also repairable by power 
cycling. I  suspect it's a comm glitch, possibly not specifically related to K3 
Remote  components, but report it here in case it helps efforts to make the 
product  more robust in the face of such errors.
