having problems connecting my K-3 to Ham Radio Deluxe

[John Weber]

Here  is a general overview of my problem


K-3 radio, new Lenovo desk top with windows 10 operating system


HRD version 6.3 (latest Software )


Elecraft KUSB black cable


Please note that I operated the radio with HRD in the past using an old computer using windows 7 but that computer has gone to the grave yard.


I have contacted HRD , Lenovo & Elecraft to trouble shoot the problem


When I connect the radio thru the KUSB port to the computer and load the HRD program

I get a screen indicating that the program can not find the radio.

Elecraft indicates that the drivers in the computer operating system are not the drivers needed to operate the radio, so I down loaded the driver that Elecraft indicated and still can not connect.

I Used an old computer with a Windows Vista operating system and connected it to the radio with HRD 6.3 and it operated correctly!!


 


Has any one had this problem ??

And what is the solution !

Please advise


John WA2C

I tried HRD 6.0 and dumped it.  I find there are issues with Windows 10
and HRD 6.0 that have not been resolved.

I do run Windows 10 and other applications,  i.e.  HRD 5.0/DM-780,
FLDIGI, WSJT-X and others very successfully with the K3S and the USB to
radio connection.  So, if it runs with HRD 5.0 and not HRD 6.0, using
the same computer, same operating system, same cable, same radio, I
strongly suspect the issue is within HRD 6.0.

What issues are you experiencing? I'm running the latest HRD with Win 10 and
not having any issues. Are you running any type of port multiplexing
software? I don't recall the name, however, one popular one definitely isn't
stable on win10.

I also run HRD with my K3S and K3 using Win 10 with no problems.

The driver for the KUSB must match the port that HRD is looking for (each set to COMx).  Start there.

I use HRD without issues on the K line.
