Hi all,I have been using my old PC with Winndows XP ever since I got my K3 last April without any trouble downloading F/W into the K3 using the Prolific USB converter. Now having got a new HP (64bit) with Vista installed I am stuck as Vista does not support the Prolific or vice versa. (HP does not sell any plug in USB/serial cards whih would have been a natural solution) I have asked Elecraft for support and I trust they are working on it. Gary replied promptly with a possible solution. However it turned out that his recommended converter Keyspan usa-19hs including a serial cable cannot be found in SM and Amazon.com as an example does not export those precious little gems outside NA.
Question to other EU K3 owners using a PC with Vista installed: How have you solved this matter? Many thanks in advance Lennart SM7BIC _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
