Do not use a Y cable. I could go into the whole technical description, but don’t.
I’m assuming here a normal non-USB K3. What you should do is connect the P3 normally to the K3 through the XCVR port on the P3, and then connect the Microham device to the PC port on the P3.

The installation shares the RS232 connection with a Microham USB interface III for digital operation. I used a Y cable to connect both of these units simultaneously. I find I cannot run both at the same time. If I do, the P3 does not display the frequency at the top of the screen, and does not display the band-pass of the VFO A. Each unit will run separately with full function. Has anyone else experienced this interaction? Were you able to adjust the connection to allow full function of both units? How did you do it? 73, Mike Smith K0CCM ______________________________________________________________ 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 k...@outlook.com ______________________________________________________________ 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
