K3 - NO SSB RX (Reprise) _ IGNORE PREVIOUS POST

Lee Trout
Darn computers -- I accidentally hit the send button before my message
was complete.  Here it is again:

The below was posted last July. I just experienced the same problem
(for no apparent reason)
that Bruce described, only my problem affected LSB only.  I tried
disabling and then
re-enabling FL1 in LSB using the K3 utility -- no help. I did not do a
reset; the RESTORE
CONFIGURATION resulted in normal operation.

Hope this helps someone who encounters a similar problem.  73,  Lee (K9CM)
