K3 Utility Version 1.2.1.6 for Windows, Mac OS/X and Linux, is now available on the Elecraft web site at http://www.elecraft.com/K3/k3_software.htm

 

This version supports the new “Power On Banner” feature offered in MCU version 2.77 and later. 

The new MCU 2.78 Beta Release that supports this feature is available on the same web page. 

 

The K3 Utility’s Configuration Tab has a new “Edit Power On Banner” button that opens a dialog where you may enter a short (22 character) message that is displayed as a “marquee banner” during the K3 power on sequence.  The banner is displayed with MCU 2.77 and later.

 

This K3 Utility Version also fixes a bug in the Transmitter Gain Calibration process.  In the prior K3 Utility version Tx Gain Calibration failed if CONFIG:TECH MD was OFF.

 

I’d again like to thank Brian Broggie, W6FVI, for sharing the Elecraft lab tool for Tx Gain Calibration that was the basis for the K3 Utility Tx Gain calibration feature.

 

David Fleming, W4SMT, is the author of the Mac and Linux versions of the K3 Utility and also deserves our thanks for a lot of hard work.
