Nels,
I'm using the KXUSB USB interface that came with my KX3.
It works as advertised with my XG3 to the XG3 Utility.
I have used both chip-sets for USB interfaces in the past with my XP laptop 
so there was no driver downloads to deal with.
The XG3 Utility will list the available com ports and it is just a matter of 
finding the one that works. That will be the one that connects.
I would think it normal for the Utility to not list a com port if you did 
not yet have an USB to RS-232 interface. My laptop lists 2 com ports. The 
one for the P3/K3 & the one for KX3 or XG3; both are USB to RS-232 - one 
DB-9 the other a mini-phone plug.

Has any one gotten the XG3 RF generator to talk to a laptop just thru a USB
port? I am useing a Windows XP laptop which does not have the old style
com-port 1 with a db-9 connector, it just has the modern USB ports.
