I've been experiencing a strange problem with my K3 and have been unsuccessful in isolating the cause. At times it just loses the serial connection to the PC and the K3 must be power cycled to restart the connection. It happens both during active contest logging as well as when sitting idle - the connection just stops. I've tried several logging applications with the same results.
At first I thought it might be related to the PigKnob I have between the serial port and K3, but running the serial cable direct resulted in the same problem. I've also seen the problem using a different PC with an Elecraft serial to USB cable for the connection. Indications are that a problem might exist in the K3, but I can't envision why it would work flawlessly for some random period and then fail. Any ideas for further troubleshooting? I've entertained updating to the KIO3BUPKT KIO3B Upgrade Kit, but don't know that the extra expense would be worth a try. 73, Mike - W0AG ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
