New K3 f/w release: MCU 1.45, DSP 1.43

[Eric Swartz - WA6HHQ]

We have just released new versions of the K3's firmware and of the K3
firmware downloader. You can get more information on these on our K3
Software page at:
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm

What's new?

* Noise Reduction feature re-enabled.

* Improved menu usability (new power-on defaults that are safer, etc.).

* Narrow DSP filters cover the full SHIFT range in all modes.

* FA/FB (frequency set) PC commands limited to min/max tuning range of
the K3. Some PC applications were sending "FA00000000000;", switching
the K3 to 500 kHz.

* Transmit drive range increased by up to 3 dB to eliminate "ERR TXG"
error messages sometimes seen during power calibration on the highest
bands.

73, Eric   WA6HHQ

I assume this means that the ability to use two audio inputs, e.g. front
panel microphone and line in, "at the same time" is not implemented yet.

Time to start lubing my voice box for the ARRL 10m "Pray for Sun Spots"
contest... ;-)
