The USB to serial port stopped working for good....when I was on 80 meters. The way I new is that N1MM Logger lost connection and could not reattach to the K3. I tried the K3 Utility...nada. This only happened on 80 meters. Yes, I have a good RF ground. Coax feed to the dipole. Tuner. etc. All grounded (RF) together ... bonded ...to a ground system that consist of a 8 foot rod in the floor of the shack....bonded to the tower....bonded to three other rods....bonded to the house. Sill, I think it was RF for some reason. Now then, I have not had this happen to a simple RS232 cable from the Rig to the Puter.
Could the electronics of the USB device be blown as the cable acts like an antenna? I don't want to make a stink over this...just want to know peoples experience. Also, lets assume that RF can do weird thing...and everyone's set up or circumstances are different...but I have done what the "book" suggests.
