I just found the solution to the K3 limitation of 1 serial port. I have always struggled with port sharing software--it has been off/on flaky for me. Hamation just came out with a box that connects to the K3 and then provides 1 UBS com port plus 3 real physical com ports. All the data from each port is passed to all the other ports. So you can have a logging program, an antenna switch, and two other programs all using K3 data and able to control the K3 too!
Called the "CAT Router" it has no controls except for a small program that lets you decide if you want rts and dtr passed thru. That's it. Once that's configured there is no related software running on your PC.
