This sounds like a marginal USB to serial adapter power situation. Are you
using a laptop? Does it have AC power? Are there other USB hubs available on the computer? 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of KD7YZ Bob Sent: Sunday, July 21, 2013 8:30 AM To: 'K3 List' Subject: [Elecraft] XG3: unable to do Firware Upload Howdy K3' people: It seems I am connected to the XG3.

> This sounds like a marginal USB to serial adapter power situation. thanks info/help Dick. Quick Response! Mainframe. "seems" it was the 9v battery. I plugged into a 12v wall-charger, then got the d/l to work. however, I also had a confusing time with the pop-up which comes up and says xg3 ready for firmware ... on COM6 but I have this on COM9 .. so even though I selected COM9, maybe because I didn't close-port and go to COM9 .. rather than go straight to COM9 ... dunno .. anyway, the Firmware uploaded. thanks again ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Sounds like a couple of problems, then.
Glad you're going again! If COM6 is a device that echoes whatever is sent to it, it looks a lot like Elecraft devices when they're in their firmware boot loader. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of KD7YZ Bob Sent: Sunday, July 21, 2013 9:00 AM Cc: 'K3 List' Subject: Re: [Elecraft] XG3: unable to do Firware Upload On 7/21/2013, () sent : > This sounds like a marginal USB to serial adapter power situation. thanks info/help Dick.

In reply to this post by Bob KD7YZ
BTW, that little XG3 has really been handy.
In this recent case, I have a nice LNA the splitter for the 2 meter array. The other day I did a <My Bad> I jut put the XG3 at the input of that, out there at the splitter, and could see back here that I didn't wreck the low noise pre-amp. Really cool . XG3's so compact that I mounted the connector right to the LNA N-connector . Yup, I like tools that are easy to use and that solve problem Quickly. Hat's off to René for suggesting its use here with the weak signal stuff I fiddle around with. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
