I used to get problems when I used to download the firmware and used the rig straight away and I found that if I switched the rig on and off twice in a row it functions perfectly after that, so I follow that procedure every time I load the firmware now and never get a problem. -- View this messag

After shutting everything down and letting it set over night, I downloaded v 4.22 from my macbook pro to the k3 without incident and the radio works perfectly. This same thing happened when I tried to install the beta version. Only after shutting down overnight was I able to reinstall v 4.14. My f
