{K3} RS 232

Adriano Perazio
Hello

Due to my problem on the KUSB adapter, i tried to connect the K3 on the PC via a serial to serial cable (DB9 male to DB9 female).

On the N1MM i can click on a station on the bandmap and the radio follows but when i move the dial nothing happens. Also the frequency o N1MM doesn´t move when i turn the dial.

I checked the wires inside the cable and all of them looks ok.

On the K3 Utility nothing happens too.

Any clues pse ? The ARRL is coming and i´m desperate.

Perhaps the Rx lines in the cable aren't connecting right.  It appears that
when the computer sends data to the K3 the radio is receiving it, because
the radio follows a bandmap click.  However the computer isn't "hearing" the
stuff the K3 should be sending.

I'd try another cable.
