K3 Power Gain Cal error

John_N1JM
Must be doing something wrong. Using the utility I get this error for both 5w and 50w cal:

Elecraft K3 Utility Version 1.3.10.15
OS Version 6.1 Build 7600 Windows 7/Windows Server 2008 R2
Starting 50 watt calibration
Calibrating at 1.900 MHz
Elapsed time: 17 seconds
K3 did not respond to VFO A query (FA)
50 watt calibration failed

FA responds fine on the command tester tab.

73,

John,

The latest Utility is 1.3.11.5.

Try using that first.
