I?m getting an error when trying to set time for charge.
It says ?d = 009, err BC3
And it?s locked!!
Any help would be appreciated.

Please check if your KX3 radio actually has the KXBC3 charger module installed and if the module is installed correctly.

The KX3 software spooks if it tries to communicate to the KXBC3 module and the module is missing. Instead of an error message, the software actually locks up and when it happened to me, I resorted to initialisation (thankfully I had a recent backup of the config).

I'd be interested to learn if there a different way to recover this. And perhaps the software should more robust: configuring the radio whether or not has the option installed, and setting a charge time, is the same option setting.

The issue has been reported to Elecraft: https://github.com/drewarnett/kx3-firmware-issues/issues

(Mind you, I love my Elecrafts to bits but I wish Elecraft engineering would have time to address the issues listed)
