K3 Banner not working
Locked
 
|
I loaded the new K3 firmware (2.78/1.98) and the new K3 utility 1.2.1.6.
I click on the utility Configuration > Edit Power On Banner, type some characters, and click Save. When I power my K3 (#757) off and on, I do not see the Banner characters on the K3 LCD. The LCD is blank for a couple of seconds then show the frequency. I have tried with different text and with asking the K3 Utility to Save Configuration. What step am I missing? 73, Paul K5ESW _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Hi Paul,
Which version of the K3 Utility are you using (Windows, Mac or Linux)? The banner scrolls across VFO B. It's kinda easy to miss if you aren't looking for it.

Paul, dumb question but are you looking at VFO B readout area or
looking for the banner on the whole screen? The banner is just scrolled in small letters on the VFO B read out space.

I thought mine wasn't working but the text comes up on the VFO B readout and scrolls to the left. Are you sure that you are not missing it. 73 Barry VK2BJ _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Merv,
Thanks. You are right -- I was expecting it on the LCD in the first few seconds and not in the VFO B space. 73, Paul K5ESW > Paul, dumb question but are you looking at VFO B readout area or > looking for the banner on the whole screen?
