You should be able to load firmware from any folder in the PC's file system. There's nothing magic about the default folder. The folder needs to have all the files, see the troubleshooting section of Help on "Missing files" for the list.
What symptoms did you observe that led you to the "firmware update process doesn't like" conclusion? 73 de Dick, K6KR From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bill Johnson Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2008 11:04 AM To: 'Andrew Vine'; 'Elecraft Reflector' Subject: RE: [Elecraft] K3 Beta firmware rev. 2.58 David, I too had trouble. I moved the files to the default folder and downloader again successfully. Apparently the firmware update process doesn't like placing into other than the default folder. It could have been my error, but once I relocated the files all worked just fine. 73, Bill K9YEQ K2 #35; KX1 #35; K3 #1744; mini mods From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Vine Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 9:19 AM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Beta firmware rev. 2.58 I am experiencing problems downloading the latest beta. Is it me or Elecraft's FTP site? Error message reads :- C:\Data\Downloads\K3\Latest Beta\2r58\k3fw2r57.zip could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. 73 Andrew m0gjh
