Hi, Matt, I'm not using a USB hub, my system used to work with a straight cable from a com port to the K3 or with the Elecraft/Prolific USB to rs-232 cable but no go, no matter which of four port I have. I also have checked for proper mating of the KIO3 but no go. It still confounds me why it worked for over a year and then stopped -- on three different computers!
Thanks for your suggestions. Any others? :) 73, Joe, W2RBA Matt Zilmer wrote: > Hi Joe, > > Did you make sure that it's opening the correct serial port?
