Check out your firewire cable. I had one that started to get flakey on me with my 3000. It would disconnect after running fine for 5 or 10 minutes. It was only when I borrowed my firewire cable from my 5000 installation that I realised that the cable was the problem.

This is hard to see as it happens without anything being reported to windows. Only running Spinrite (www.grc.com) will help eliminate this Mike va3mw On Thu, Nov 22, 2012 at 7:47 AM, W3HP - RJ Harris <w...@rjharris.com> wrote: > Some months back I switched from an SDR-1000 to an SDR-3000.
