Hi all,

I am trying to do the RF Calibration test using my new XG3.  I am getting the error below.  I have all firmware up to date on the K3s and the XG3. I even tried reloading the firmware on the K3s just to see if that worked. Of course turning it off and back on again did nothing either.  I DO have the SUB RX on this rig as well, ideas?

TIA and 73,
