[Elecraft] Just Received my New KX3

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Chances are a new KX3 has the latest firmware. See page 25 of your KX3
Owner's manual for details of how to check it and, should an update be
released, how to update it. 

Lynn's recommendation to back up your configuration is a very good one.
That's explained in the Owner's manual too. It's not likely that you will
have an issue with the KX3, but more often with the operator, Hi! If you get
to changing things around in the menus,  discover that you are "lost" and
want it back the way you started, all you need do is spend a couple of
minutes reloading your saved configuration. 

73, Ron AC7AC

AMEN Lynn!
Download the Elecraft Utility for the KX3, KXP3 and KXPA100 if you haven't
yet.
They are located at
http://www.elecraft.com/software/elecraft_software_page.htm
The back-up configuration is in the Utility for each.

When you have time roam about in the Elecraft web site. You will need to
learn how to download and install new firmware.
Elecraft updates the firmware from time to time. Both to improve it's
operation (bug fixes) and better yet to add new features!

Before you do anything, back up the configuration, and save it in case you
need it in the future.
