Mac running a recent version of OS X works fine with the KX3. The only trouble I ran into was trying to reload the factory/original config file - for some reason the Mac's KX3 Utility wouldn't recognize the file format, so I moved to a PC and reloaded it there without a problem. You aren'y likely to need to reload the factory config though - this was due to another issue I was trying to solve.
If you launch the KX3 Utility and don't see any comm ports in the pulldown list, you probably don't have the right FTDI USB drivers installed - common problem that many of us have run into, and easy to fix with a download. For normal operation you should be all set. --Andrew, NV1B .. On Sun, Mar 31, 2013 at 9:02 AM, AB1SX <[email protected]> wrote: > I am a new ham and just bough a kx3 and own a MAC.
