[Elecraft] K3 ERR DSE

[Tony G6GLP]

To don and all others,
I didnt even have to call or mail K3support but I have the response 
already.  I have reloaded the firmware now on MC 5.56 the DSP is the 
same but got reloaded anyway. The problem would seem to be overwork of 
the CPU and this seems to fit with my recollection that it only seems to 
occur when I have the pc connected. The response from Gary was:-
*****
That error can occur if there are a lot of things going on at the same 
time, such as CAT control is being used with a computer and NR or NB are 
enabled. It is a report of excessive traffic to/from the K3 MCU.

Try turning things off that are not absolutely necessary, and/or reduce 
the polling interval between the PC and the K3.
*****
My thanks to all who replied especially K3support i.e. Eric for 
forwarding the mail and Gary and Don for there appropriate responses.
