have you tried a reboot of the Mac?

Done several times. NO change.
Except now, I can test the port and got a good test at the right
speed. The TX LED goes out, and the delta-F led comes on solid.
WHen I try to upload firmware I get "K3 not responding". So it
responds, then it doesn't.
I don't have a good feeling about this. Don't believe it's the
computer port. It seems to be the radio.
It's the Mac version of the Utility.

Grant,
Sounds like the communications with the COM port were lost. Shut
down power on the
radio...unplug the power cable if necessary and the RS232 cable.
Reboot your computer.
Reconnect the RS232 and power cable and start the utility program.
Make sure its set for
38.4K baud rate and click the button on the ports tab to test
communications. Then try to
load the firmware again.

Trying to put in 2.72. Something crashed and caused a loss of
communication the initial attempt, and the radio is stuck in MCU LD.
Went through the procedure for forcing bootloads in the manual --
can
get to the red flashing TX LED, with MCU LD in the display (no
backlight). But nothing past that.
Here is a sample of the Utility (1.1.10.17) log:
11:10:24 K3 boot loader is ready for MCU firmware load. RS232
38400 bps.
11:10:24 New firmware is available for your K3
11:10:29 K3 boot loader is waiting for MCU firmware load.
11:11:01 K3 boot loader is waiting for MCU firmware load.
11:11:12 K3 boot loader is ready for MCU firmware load. RS232
38400 bps.
11:11:12 New firmware is available for your K3
11:11:30 K3 boot loader is ready for MCU firmware load. RS232
38400 bps.
11:11:30 New firmware is available for your K3
11:11:35 K3 boot loader is ready for MCU firmware load. RS232
38400 bps.
11:11:35 New firmware is available for your K3
11:11:46 K3 boot loader is waiting for MCU firmware load.
11:12:25 K3 boot loader is waiting for MCU firmware load."
It just sits at the "... waiting for MCU firmware load" point and
nothing happens. The port checks ok, with good communication to
the
radio. No yellow flashing led, ever.
Is there some other way to hard reset this thing to get it
moving? Or
something else I missed in the manual?
