Hard to say Jim. I have had my K3 since Nov 2007 and it only happened once
and the one time that it did happen I neglected to close one of the
applications that poll the K3. So I will chalk that one up to operator
error.

Glad that you were able to resolve your issue.

Thanks to Gregg for suggesting that I hold the power button for 10 seconds
after power on.  It is unclear that this truly fixed the problem or enabled
download but it is true that after several tries, I was able to successfully
reload all firmware and the radio is back on line.



Geez, sure would hate to have to do this in middle of a contest or other
important activity!  Wonder what happened to cause the K3 to go into such a
state that it was very difficult to recover from.
