Errors after switching on the K3

[Steef PA2A]

Hi,

I just turned on the K3 and the sub VFO display showed ERR AT3. Tapping DISP a few times showed also ERR PA1, ERR BP3, BP4, and then the VFO B frequency.

About 2 weeks ago a similar sequence of errors was displayed: ERR BP1, LPF, IO3, IF1, XV3, BP2, AT3, PA1.
Has someone else experienced the same startup messages? Turning off and on made the problem disappear.

Steef,

This has been a long term issue for me on my K3 #145 eg see.....

http://n2.nabble.com/K3-Error-Message-ERR-AT3-tt4043437.html#a4044226

When it happens the errors just seem random though mostly it disables the ATU and ANT1/2. Otherwise everything's normal so I normally ignore it for a while and then power cycle again which usually fixes it. I find if I power cycle immediately it doesn't go away most of the time. Weird isn't it??
