K3 DSP firmware update 'Missing'

[Dave G3WGN M6O]

Hi, hoping the Elecraft brains trust can help.  I'm updating the firmware on
my K3 in preparation for the forthcoming 6Gs DXpedition to VK9X.
Current DSP firmware is 2.86; when I 'Copy new files from Elecraft' in the
utility, I get the latest MCU and FPF releases, but both DSP are shown as
'Missing' in the Available column.  The Elecraft website shows DSP release
2.88 as the latest. How do I get the latest DSP firmware?

Update: on further examination when I 'Copy new files from Elecraft' in the
utility, it responds with '2 files copied' then waits for the download.
Clearly it must need to copy more than two files for MCU, FPF and DSP. I can
see all the needed files on the Elecraft ftp site, but the utility is not
copying the DSP 2.88 files that are there.
In case my anti-virus/anti-malware software was interfering with the copy
process, I temporarily switched it off.  No difference, still reported 2
files copied, no DSP.

Since you are looking at the FTP site, just download all of the files from there to a local folder.  Then browse to that local folder with Utility instead of having Utility do the download.

Thanks Grant and several others offline. I'm now up-and-running courtesy of your suggestions. I have no idea why Utility couldn't pull the dsp firmware off the Elecraft ftp site, but could access all the firmware downloaded to a thumb drive.

So now continuing trial pack and inventory check for VK9XG...
