We have found the cause of this and will have a f/w update out shortly for the P3.

73,

I just acquired a P3 from a local ham and I'm having the FATAL ERROR IN: ddc_sect_(coeff() span=0 problem.

I do *not* have the SVGA card installed, running 1.12 firmware. Requires parameter reset, lose all the FN keys. Kills computer comms to K3 while frozen.

Definitely seems to happen after band change, but can't swear it is only in fixed tune mode. Might also be band change whenever Peak or Average is on.

Will try new firmware when available.

We will be releasing new P3 software later this morning that fixes this
problem.
