Bill,
Aren't computers fun? If it is a Windows update, there will be a restore
point to go back to. Click on the Windows icon in the lower left corner
of your screen and type 'restore' and you can find the latest restore
points with their dates. Try going back to the latest one.
Some other questions:
Is the computer using a real serial port, or a serial to USB adaptor for
the K3?
Is the same serial connection being used for the Kenwood as the K3?
Have you added or changed any serial or USB devices lately?
Are you running any programs that call the serial port the K3 is
connected to?
This problem certainly sounds like either a port, driver, or conflict
issue. Good luck with your problem, and please let us know what the fix
turns out to be!

Suddenly, HRD is no longer working with my K3:
Using my K3, I initially click on a favorite - the rig responds
immediately. After a few seconds (less than 10), I click on another
favorite and there will be a multi-second delay (about 6 or 7 seconds)
before the change takes place. Changing bands is similar delayed.
This is a new problem and only effects the K3. My TS480 works
perfectly with HRD. I am a many year user of HRD - so I doubt if I am
doing something incorrectly. I also am doubting there is something
wrong with HRD. I have made no hardware changes recently to my
computer (2 years at least).
Going further, I also doubt if there is anything wrong with my K3. It
is as solid as a rock and I normally control it with a Genovation
keypad and the K-Pod. Life is great!
HRD support responded quickly and indicated it might go back a Windows
10 update. I feel that is probably a good answer. Now, if a driver has
been screwed up - how will I determine which one? I believe I have a
system backup SSD that I might try - in case that works, I would at
least have a clue.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
