The actual connection, no. BUT, K3 utility's lack of robustness DOES allow the problems sometimes found when using USB serial devices to prevent the K3 utility from doing it's job. Communications protocols that function properly with less than perfect communications paths have been around for decades. If the K3 utility used such a protocol (and was, therefore, more robust) people wouldn't be having these problems. 73, Ross N4RP -- FCC Section 97.313(a) “At all times, an amateur station must use the minimum transmitter power necessary to carry out the desired communications.” ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
