In K3 Utility Help, USB to Serial Adapter Troubleshooting topic: "Before loading K3 firmware through a virtual port associated with a microHAM microKEYER, microKEYER II, MK2R or MK2R+, change the microHAM USB Device Router's Radio type to "none". (TU W4TV). If you are unable to load firmware through a microHAM device, use a USB to Serial Adapter or a "real" RS-232 cable. Neither microHAM nor Elecraft recommend loading K3 firmware through the microHAM Router (the PC software used with microHAM USB devices)."
Maybe this is the problem. Bob NW8L ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dick... Thanks for responding. Still no joy after going through all the HELP suggestions. The problem seems to be an inability to connect from the computer to the K3. Note, this whole arrangement has been working perfectly up to this point. No cable changes, etc. What I get when trying to establish a connection to the K3 is a steady hunt through various baud rates with no success. I have cycled everything many times. I am not using a serial-USB adapter. I am connecting via a microHAM CW KEYER [which has been working without problems]. I think I'm getting desperate! Thanks again. ...robert On 6/30/2012 16:00, Dick Dievendorff wrote: > See K3 Utility Help, Troubleshooting MCU Load failure.
