Hi,
I too have had issues with the serial port speed of my K3 as well. My
issues are when using MixW though, not HRD. When I switched from my
Icom 756 PROIII to the K3, (using MixW), I was appalled at the loss in
speed for rig control. I have never fully resolved this issue, and will
be most interested in this thread as it progresses...
I too am running Linux, but I also keep Windows around for a few
programs as well, so our setups are similar.
For no real good reason I suspect it is the K3 itself that is slow...
Only because I have spent countless hours trying to correct the issue
only to have never fully resolved it. This leaves the K3... Not a real
good reason to suspect it, but I do.
73s and thanks,

Computer has a serial board with two ports. One for the K3 (P3) and one
for the 480. Not used for anything else. No adapters.
Pulled a two month old backup SSD out of the safe. No go - did not work
then either.
I am sure the computer is busy doing something - which I don't know
about - causing a resource hog delay.
This is why 99% of the time, I am running Linux Mint. But, the number of
programs that really are good for ham radio and work on Linux is small.
Most of the stuff is garbage. So I keep Windows around.
I did find an Apple driver update - took it out and noticed no difference.
This is becoming one of those things that is taking more time than it is
worth. I think this is how MS wear their customers down. Long live Linux!
