The reason I mention this is that I recently went through a similar 
troubleshooting exercise with a KRC2 where it was suggested that my USB->serial 
device was bad, I should use the K3 AUX connector rather than RS232, I needed a 
real serial port, etc. etc.

After jumping through all of these hoops, the end result was that it was an 
Elecraft software problem.

Wes,

No-one is holding the K3 blameless, but in the interest of complete 
troubleshooting, it is quite reasonable (to me) to check the easy things first 
if for no other reason than to eliminate them from the suspect list.  It is 
often that the things that are most frequently overlooked are the culprit.  
Despite the fact that these things are easy to check, human nature tends to 
expect the worst - elimination of items from the suspect list as a first order 
of business is always a wise undertaking in troubleshooting procedures.  In 
other words, proving what works is just as important as finding what does not 
work.

73,
