This does not work if one has a logging program that is 
using the K3's RS-232 port.  As far as I know, no commonly 
used operating system permits more than one program to 
access a serial port at the same time which means that WSJT 
can not access the RTS/DTR lines. 

Note: it might be possible to use LP-Bridge or the freeware 
Enterlogic VSPE to "split" the hardware port into multiple 
virtual ports but there are some significant configuration 
and reliability issues with some logging software and port 
sharing.
