PMFJI, Frank, I'm primarily a Mac user and OS X
beta tester. But I do work with Windows because it
will do some things I need (much better for
working with DVDs for example -- and more ham
radio apps).
So some time ago I installed Windows 10 Preview on
my Win 8.1 machine (my main Windows computers are
Windows 7, and will stay that way for a while, at
least). Windows 10 is an improvement over Win
8.1, IMO -- and that's even after modifying Win
8.1 to make the GUI work like Win 7 :-)

Bill you are not alone as a MAC user and I am NOT going to purchase a WIN 10
box to do any work for ham radio.
I have used the utility on my MacBookAir for the KX3 utility and love it.

I have been using my K3S with Win 7 so far and decided to give the Mac a chance
to play.
Downloaded the latest utility for the Mac (Latest OSX, Macbook Pro I7 w/16gigs)
and convinced the Mac that I really did want to open this file. I selected the
USB com port and my radio immediately went into TX mode and would not stop. I
shut down the radio. Stated K3S again and it was still in TX. I unplugged the
USB, radio still in transmit. Powered off rdio, power on again, still in TX.
Now I connected the rdio to my Win 7 machine, and all is well again.
Now, plug USB back into the Mac, re-read paragraph two above.
I am a new user to the Mac and don’t know a lot about the comport details so
this is probably something silly, but I need some assistance. Help!
Part 2)
Just to sav e time, I hooked up the K3 to Mac with KUSB cable, and sure enough,
it also goes to TX when connected to the Mac. So it;s not the radio, must be a
setting in the computer, a hiccup in the utility.
FWIW: I have moved the modified KBPF3 and filters from my old K3 to the K3s
yesterday and that is working just fine.
