update on my KXV3B

[Dick Hanson]

First of all, thanks to all for responding!

 

The good news, fwiw, is that I was able to toggle to the B configuration by
following  Bob's suggestion of going to the KXV3 menu and then pressing 9.

It switched to the new configuration and no more err.

 

When I press PRE, it now briefly displays PRE 1, which is new to my radio.

Have not yet been successful bringing up pre 2.

 

And of course, after plugging my trusty serial to usb cable..it seems to
have quit, at a very inopportune time.

Been that kind of day, but, I'll find another cable and go for 5.26.

 

Thanks again.

Dick, K5AND

You need to set PREAMP2 to on by holding down MENU/CONFIG.  Then press the PRE button and it will rotate from OFF to PRE 1, then to PRE 2.

This needs to be done 3 times, if you desire, for 6, 10 and 12 meters.

Yes, it must be done separately for each band.  That is what is meant by
"per band setting".
