This is the sort of response you might get when you have chosen a different
COM port than the one your K3 is connected to. The COM port you've chosen is echoing everything sent to it. Maybe it's a modem.

So try the "Test communications" button on the "Port" tab of the utility to see if
the 'puter and K3 are in the mood. 73, Mike NF4L On 7/6/2010 9:31 AM, Dick Dievendorff wrote: > This is the sort of response you might get when you have chosen a different > COM port than the one your K3 is connected to.

In reply to this post by Paul Milward
I got the same message when i was using wrong comport. I have the navigator interface connected to the K3 and it shows two comports for "PPT and Cat". It was set on the wrong comport. Don't ask me how the heck it changed, but it did. Switched comports and i was in bizzness.
