Hi Joel, Is the failure you get with the Mac version of the Utility the same as you get using VMWare Fusion running Windows?
Do you have the latest driver installed for your USB/Serial adapter? Do have access to another USB/Serial adapter to try as a test?

The audio change is great. As is the LED brightness. I have not had a chance to play with the rest of it. I will say that I thought I bricked my KX3 during the FW upload. As usual, I could not get the Mac version to complete the update. The FW would load, but the DSP would not. I tried just uploading the DSP and the Mac version would not let me. Booted into VMware and tried there with no success. Finally, booting into BootCamp got me going again. I have *no* luck updated FW on the KX3 or the P3 with the Mac utility. I just updated the K3 with the Mac utility with no issues. I have no idea why the difference. 73, Joel - W4JBB ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
