Perhaps you're not getting band data from the K3.
Try connecting the K3 Utility to the K3, select the K3 Utility's "Command Tester" tab and move the K3 VFO A knob and make band changes with the K3's band selector. You should observe "IF" data being sent from the K3 to the PC program when the VFO stops and when the band is changed with the K3's bandswitch. If that's not happening, your K3 isn't sending band change data that the SteppIR controller depends upon. Then type "AI1;" (including the semicolon) in the command tester input screen and repeat this, turning VFO A and changing bands.

No Y cable, no PC based software involved. I am not convinced that the SteppIR is "listening". Jim N1NK
