Odd error code... "DVR" ?!

[Gil WA5YKK]

To anyone who has had the same experience....

   I'm at yet another standoff point with my K3, latest firmware update,
everything installed, and just two days ago I got "ERR DVR", so I looked
it up. Not one such item listed, just a notation that I made myself, and
I can't recall what I did to correct it.

   One question - when you "upgrade" the firmware, do all your custom
settings get blown away, requiring a total reset? I'm still playing
games with the 144 MHz module, trying to figure out how to make it work
with tone and to access repeaters, then I noted that one PDF file about
upgrades is different from the original. Perhaps that's why a lot of
items aren't covered, or even mentioned.

Ideas?

Tnx, 73's

ERR DVR
Digital Voice Recorder not found DVR module may be defective or
incorrectly installed, or the MCU or DSP firmware may require
updating.

I keep a copy of the K3 Manual PDF file on my desktop.  These PDF's
have a search function on the R/H side of the Adobe Reader Tool Bar.
Try it.  You'll like it.

If you don't have a DVR, you probably now have it turned on in CONFIG:
KDVR3.  Set it to "not inSt".

I've done just about every beta firmware and a lot of alphas.  Rarely,
will sometimes get bit changes to config settings when installing new
firmware.  Have never been able to make it the same reset happen
twice.  Just reset it to what I want and move on.

More often, will lose last TX/RX state settings and need to get it
back on mode, filter, or whatever, where I was.  But I sort of expect
this as code is moving around.

73, Guy.
