I too, experienced some issues. Be sure you are using the latest utility. Not all USB to Serial converters are made equal. I have also found that connectors and make of adapters have impacts. Oh, then let's add in the age of your OS installation.
When I get errors, if it doesn't load. Load again using only newer software. Seems to get through it for me. Good luck. 73, Bill K9YEQ -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Keith Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2009 6:10 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Firmware loading I loaded the newest firmware into my K3 sucessfully tonight. However I see a lot of retries during the FPF part of the firmware load. Is this normal? I am using an RS232 cable and COM1(38000,N,8,1). Everything loaded OK but I was wondering if I may have a wrong setting somewhere? 73 Keith Hamilton W8GX ______________________________________________________________ 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
