First depends on the version of FLFIGI.   I use v4.0.5 With that I choose K3/KX3 Beta as the radio from the HamLib. 38400 baud, 1 stop.   I do not have DTR or DTS checked.  With my configuration I end up with COM 5. All works great with these values. 73 Bob, K4TAX On 8/13/2019 8:14 PM, Ra

Do you have any software on the laptop that communicates with the K3? Download and install the K3 Utility from the Elecraft website to test the connection. You'll want it anyway for firmware updates and calibrations. GL & 73, Brian, K0DTJ ___

If that does not work, then you have a serial port issue with Windows... I am using a "real" serial port. 73, and thanks, Dave (NK7Z) https://www.nk7z.net ARRL Technical Specialist ARRL Volunteer Examiner ARRL Asst. Director, NW Division, Technical Resources On 8/13/19 4:49 PM, Ray Albers wrot

So after having built a KX1 15 yrs ago, and 5 yrs ago acquiring a KX-3, I've finally gotten a [used] K3. I use MixW for logging (I no longer use it for digital modes, and haven't upgraded it for years). I had interfaced my old ICOM 746PRO and it worked perfectly, entering the frequency into the l
