The manual says that when I click on TEST COMMUNICATIONS that it should indicate in a pop-up window the speed of the communications -- which it does -- 9600 baud -- and should show the firmware version installed in the XG32 -- which it does not -- instead it says "XG3 boot loader is ready for firmware load. COM 5 RS-232 9600 bits". I won't beat this to death as I have given all the information I can. The unit still is working on the default frequencies and as received from Elecraft, but is useless for doing anything else right now -- changing the default frequencies, scanning, sending custom commands and so on. Either I or somebody smarter than me will figure it out, I have tried three different FTDI chipset based USB-Serial converters and three different computers XP and Windows. No joy.
