Rick,
The K3 utility wants a com port to connect to, and that com port
needs to be the same as the one for the radio. If you are using a USB
adapter, it declares itself as a com port. Go into device manager and
see which com port your adapter "thinks" it is, and make a note of it.
Use that com port in the utility to connect to the K3, and make sure you
have the data rate and data bits spec'd correctly. Once the utility gets
correct information, it should work perfectly.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Utility with Windows 10
I downloaded the latest K3 utility onto my Surface Pro 4 with Windows
10. My K3 is serial 2869, with RS232 to USB adapter cable. I
downloaded the driver indicated on the Elecraft site. Problem: I
cannot, for the life of me, get the radio to connect to the computer.
Could this be a 32 bit versus 64 bit compatibility issue? Any ideas or
suggestions? By the way, the KX3 utility works fine on this computer.
I’m baffled and ready to kick the cat.
