For reference,my K3 serial 2192 took the FW 4.03 quite well without any incompatibility issue at all and I am working every night on 40M with it without any single problem. AD4C

After the download, the rig went dead in the water. After three hours of work with Dale at Elecraft, we determined that the newest firmware available on the website has major compatibility issues with some, if not all recent K3's. After re-installing the 3.97/1.09/2.58 packages, all was well again. Dale tells me he has had three cases of this incompatibility recently. This is just a warning to think twice before downloading the latest and greatest, until the good folks on the West Coast get all the bugs out!!
