K3 problem after latest sw update

[Twan at pa0kv.nl]

Hi!

Yesterday I updated my K3's sw. After some shutdown and startups it came
up as normal.

But there is no reception. I get noise from my antenna. Unplug the
antenna, no noise.
Send a signal in the air on the tuned frequency ... nothing. No S-meter,
no biep.

What went wrong? I did reinstall all updates. No result.

Restore the CONFIG copy you made before you updated FW. You did do a CONFIG backup didn’t you?

I tuned into my inv-V with 8 Watt on 3.63 Mhz and
connected a 1 meter wire as antenna on my HP frequency counter.
The counter displayed 3.2177 Mhz ! An offset of approximately .412 Mhz

Still no idea. Waiting on k3support@elecraft...

Problem solved!
FTP does not work here anymore due to unknown reasons.
As a result, a much older version of firmware has been installed.
For some unclear reason I kept the old firmware files. But now I moved them
to another folder. I received the latest firmware via email.
After installation, everything works as it should.

Thanks Elecraft/Wayne!
