Use the Elecraft Utility, select Edit Power On Banner and make the 
changes you need.   Just be sure there are no extra letters or symbols 
in the box.  Only 22 characters are allowed.

Of course you will need the radio powered up and connected to the 
computer.  Also check the port number and Test Communications to be sure 
the radio and the computer are communicating.

Now when I power up the K3, I'm getting text showing up before the reset banner. For example if my new banner is my call, W3SB, before it scrolls there is text, let's say "XYZ_" ahead of it. Since "XYZ" is a piece of equipment I used to have, I know that I set "XYZ" at some point, but for the life of me I don't know how. Is there some other way that the sign on banner text can be set? This really has me puzzled.
