New K3 user -- it boots up in transmit if the RS232 attached laptop has

What do I have set wrong ???  This is a real RS232 not a USB-RS232 dongle.
All works fine if computer is booted up first - communicates with N1MM
etc etc

RTS and DTR can be configured to assert PTT and key the K3. It is controlled by a menu entry CONFIG:RS-232, and there are several choices including turning it off. Turn them off in the menu and your problem should go away. I think you have to have CONFIG:TECH MD set to ON to see the RS-232 menu entry.
