K3 not loading MCU 4.48

VE3WDM

I noticed on the firmware page MCU 4.48 is available but I am not able to load it on my K3. I am using the K3 utility ver 1.12.3.28 which is the latest. The utility in forms me of the following.

          Installed on K3                      Available
MCU 04.39                                      0.439
FPF  01.14                                      01.14
DSP1 02.73                                    02.73
DSP2 02.73                                    02.73

When I check for a newer version I get no indication of a 4.48 ver availble.

Re: K3 not loading MCU 4.48

Dick Dievendorff
Have you clicked the "Copy Files from Elecraft" button on the K3 Utility
Firmware tab?  I just did this, and it fetched 04.48 from the FTP site.

See K3 Utility Help, "Getting Started", next to last step.

You probably need to copy all the new firmware using the push button
in the K3 utility.  Place it in its own folder, from which you can
download it into the K3.

Mike,

Note that your listing shows 4.39 is Installed on your K3  and also that
same version is "Available"
That means that 4.39 is the highest level available on your computer.  
You must click on "Get New Files fron Elecraft" to download them into
your computer.

Don W3FPR

Re: K3 not loading MCU 4.48

Randy Moore
Not having updated my firmware for a while, this puzzled me too. Perhaps more specific wording instead of "Available" could be considered.

One more issue. Be sure to note where you are saving the download.  The K3
Looks to a default.  If you have changed this your "desktop" will not find
the right version.  If you continue to have an issue, let me know and I will
help you navigate.

Re: K3 not loading MCU 4.48

VE3WDM
I would like to thank everyone for their input and I have found pressing "copy files from Elecraft" did the trick (thanks Dick K6KR for the info) My problem was I had just updated my P3 and it does not have this button in the P3 Utility. You are just give the option of "Check version now" push button and all worked well doing that so I just tried the same in the K3 Utility.  
Thanks again for all your input.
