K3 - Using Windows 10

Bill-3
Anyone using the Windows 10 Preview with their assorted K3 software? If
so, how is it going?

Thanks,

Bill W2BLC

Re: K3 - Using Windows 10

Hi Bill

I have been using Windows 10 on one of my computers for several months. I have run it with both the KX3 and K3 in contests using N3 N3FJP and FLDIJI. All five of the Elrcraft Utilities plus the FT-8800 programmer and KG-UV123 Programmers work well.

I have found Windows 10 to be reliable but do not use it for my financial activities as there could be a security risk with the Preview version.

I do like it and think the "REAL" version will be well liked by everyone. Windows 8.1 has been reliable but I like the interface of Windows 10 much better.

73 and good luck

Ditto here, except I have it running on two computers, one 32-bit and
one 64-bit.   Both run all my Elecraft programs flawlessly, as well as
my Propnet program for my 10M Automatically Controlled Digital Station
on 28.1188 MHz.  The Propnet program runs 24/7 and other than occasional
updates has been working continously.

I also use Fldigi 3.22.08 under Win 10 Preview, as well as HRD.  I am SO
looking forward to the final release this summer.   I will probably
upgrade all my computers to Windows 10 - it is that much better.  I
hated Win 8.0 with a passion!  Win 8.1 was slightly better, but not even
close to Win 10.  This from a dedicated Linux guy (my XYL runs Linux
Mint exclusively, as do most computers that I need to operate
continuously with no reboots).  I've been a Linux admin since 1995, so
have worked with just about every flavor out there, including having
been on most of the evaluation teams for DOS 5.0 and later, including
Windows builds.

NaP3 / LP-Pan seems to run fine with my K3 under Windows 10.

Hi
Just checked out windows 10 in a virtual machine and it runs Win4k3suite  connected to the k3, kpa500 and KAT500  as well as hrd logbook, dxlabs, n1mm and log4om just fine.
Much better interface than win 8.
Curious observation though,  all comports on my edge port 8 port USB hub had the comport numbers in reverse order.
Seems to perform very well with 4g as a 64 bit os.
